  • K-listed waste

    Combined wastewater from making nitrobenzene and aniline

Industry: Organic chemicals.

Listed withK-listed waste

Toxic K-listed waste from organic chemical plants. Combined wastewater streams from making nitrobenzene and aniline.

Is K104 hazardous waste?

Yes. K104 is a nonacute K-listed hazardous waste when the source process and waste stream match. Its federal hazard code is (T), for toxicity.

K104 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 K104 in Item 13. See VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules.

What does K104 cover?

Wastewater from making nitrobenzene and aniline, when the streams are combined. The waste form and its exact source process must both match. Chemical content alone isn't enough.

Is nitrobenzene and aniline combined wastewater K104 or another code?

CodeWhen it fits
K104It is the combined wastewater streams of nitrobenzene/aniline production.
K103It is residue from the aniline extraction step of making aniline.
K083It 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.
