U194, n-Propylamine.

  • U-listed waste

    n-Propylamine

U-list unused product.

Ignitable & toxic U-listed hazardous waste for unused n-propylamine, a flammable amine liquid used in pesticide & drug making.

Is U194 hazardous waste?

Yes, when the listing applies. U194 covers unused n-Propylamine thrown away as described below, including off-specification product and qualifying residues. It is a nonacute U-listed waste, not an acute P-listed one. The listing turns on the product and how it is discarded, not on a TCLP result alone.

On a required hazardous waste manifest, put U194 in Item 13. Also check the VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules and pharmaceutical containers.

What does U194 cover?

This covers unused n-Propylamine discarded as pure or technical grade, or in a formulation where it is the only active ingredient. That includes off-specification batches, residues in nonempty containers and cleanup residues from spills of these products. Inactive ingredients don't stop it counting as the sole active ingredient.

Is waste n-Propylamine always U194?

CodeWhen it fits
U194The unused chemical is discarded as pure or technical grade, or as the sole active ingredient. Residues from that product count too.
Characteristic waste (D001–D043)A used chemical or a different formulation meets a hazardous waste characteristic. Check any process listings that apply too.

The rows can apply together, so a listed unused product can also exhibit a characteristic. This chemical turning up in a manufacturing waste doesn't make the waste U194. Match the waste's origin, formulation and use history. Mixing listed waste with solid waste, or treating it, usually doesn't remove the listing. That takes an applicable exclusion, exception or approved delisting.
