K108, Condensed vapors from making rocket-fuel chemical UDMH.
K-listed waste
Condensed vapors from making rocket-fuel chemical UDMH
Industry: Organic chemicals.
Is K108 hazardous waste?
Yes. K108 is a nonacute K-listed hazardous waste when the source process and waste stream match. Its federal hazard code is (I,T), for ignitability and toxicity.
K108 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 K108 in Item 13. See VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules.
What does K108 cover?
Condensed column overheads from product separation, plus condensed reactor vent gases, from making 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) from carboxylic acid hydrazides.

Is UDMH production condensed vapors K108 or another code?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K108 | It is condensed column overheads from product separation and condensed reactor vent gases in making 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) from carboxylic acid hydrazides. |
| K107 | It is column bottoms from product separation in making 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) from carboxylic acid hydrazides. |
| K110 | It is condensed column overheads from intermediate separation in making 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) from carboxylic acid hydrazides. |
The industry, production step and waste form tell these K listings apart, not chemical content. 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.
