P022, Carbon disulfide.
Acute hazardousP-listed waste
Carbon disulfide
P-list unused product.
ComplyOnSiteIs P022 hazardous waste?
Yes, when the listing applies. Unused carbon disulfide thrown away is P022, including off-specification product and qualifying residues. The P listing makes it acute hazardous waste, so the stricter acute quantities apply even to a small amount.
On a required hazardous waste manifest, put P022 in Item 13. The VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules and the rules for pharmaceutical containers may also matter.
What does P022 cover?
This covers unused carbon disulfide thrown away as pure or technical grade, or in a formulation where it is the only active ingredient. Off-specification batches, residues left in containers that aren’t empty, and spill cleanup residues from those products count too. Inactive ingredients don’t change the sole-active-ingredient test.

Is carbon disulfide waste always P022?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| P022 | The unused chemical is thrown away, as pure or technical grade or as the sole active ingredient. Qualifying product residues fit too. |
| F005 | It is spent after solvent use, or is a still bottom from recovery. The F005 blend conditions apply too. |
| Characteristic waste (D001–D043) | A used chemical or a different formulation meets a hazardous-waste characteristic. Check any process listings that apply too. |
Both rows can apply at once, since a listed unused product can also show a characteristic. Having this chemical in a manufacturing waste doesn’t make that waste P022. Match the waste’s origin, formulation and use history. Mixing a listed waste with solid waste, or treating it, usually doesn’t remove the listing. That takes an exclusion, an exception or an approved delisting. Solvent use matters. Using the chemical as an ingredient or reactant doesn’t make it a spent F-listed solvent. Check each listing’s before-use blend conditions.
