K-listed waste
Reactor scrubber water from making a dithiocarbamate pesticide ingredient
Industry: Pesticides.
Is K124 hazardous waste?
Yes. K124 is a nonacute K-listed hazardous waste when the source process and waste stream match. Its federal hazard code is (C, T), for corrosivity and toxicity.
K124 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 K124 in Item 13. See VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules.
What does K124 cover?
Water from scrubbing the reactor vent when making ethylenebisdithiocarbamic acid and its salts. The waste form and its exact source process must both match. Chemical content alone isn't enough.

Is dithiocarbamate scrubber water K124 or another code?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| K124 | It is reactor vent scrubber water from making ethylenebisdithiocarbamic acid and its salts. |
| K125 | It is solids from filtration, evaporation and centrifugation in making ethylenebisdithiocarbamic acid and its salts. |
| K123 | It is process wastewater, including supernates, filtrates and washwaters, from making ethylenebisdithiocarbamic acid and its salt. |
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.
