K103, Extraction residue from making aniline.
K-listed waste
Extraction residue from making aniline
Industry: Organic chemicals.
ComplyOnSiteIs K103 hazardous waste?
Yes. K103 is a nonacute K-listed hazardous waste when the source process and waste stream match. Its federal hazard code is (T), for toxicity.
K103 is listed by source, so how and where the waste arose decides it, not a concentration test alone. A test may add a characteristic code but doesn't remove the listing. On a required hazardous waste manifest, put K103 in Item 13. See VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules.
What does K103 cover?
Process residue left by aniline extraction in aniline production. The waste form and its exact source process must both match. Chemical content alone isn't enough.

Is aniline extraction residue K103 or another code?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K103 | It is residue from the aniline extraction step of making aniline. |
| K104 | It is the combined wastewater streams of nitrobenzene/aniline production. |
| K083 | It is distillation bottoms from making aniline. |
The industry, production step and waste form tell these K listings apart. The rows show nearby listed streams, not every code that can apply. Add any characteristic or other listing that also fits, as one waste can carry more than 1 federal code.
