    Caustic liquid, cyanides, no metals

Cyanides are present in this caustic stream; metals are absent.

Caustic inorganic liquid carrying cyanides but no metals. If metals are in the stream too, it takes form 107 instead.

Where does Texas form code 108 go in the Texas waste code?

In characters 5–7. The 8-character code is a 4-character stream sequence, the 3-digit form 108 and a final class character. Form 108 sits in the inorganic liquids category.

The form says nothing about hazard. The stream's makeup, source and properties decide the class character.

For a hazardous or Class 1 shipment on a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, enter the full Texas code in Item 13, across 2 blocks on paper. Add the EPA waste codes beside it. The 3 form digits alone are incomplete.

The generator sets the class from exclusions, then federal hazardous-waste listings and characteristics, then Texas industrial-waste criteria. H means hazardous. 1, 2 and 3 are the nonhazardous industrial classes. Process knowledge or testing supports the decision.

What does Texas form code 108 cover?

A caustic solution with cyanides and no metals. The composition record should name the cyanides and show the same liquid stream holds no metals.

Is a caustic liquid with cyanides always Texas form code 108?

CodeWhen it fits
108The caustic liquid holds cyanides and no metals.
107The caustic liquid holds both cyanides and metals.
106The caustic liquid holds metals and no cyanides.
110The liquid is caustic aqueous waste. Compare its composition with the forms that name constituents.

No metals is what separates this form from the other cyanide caustic form. The record must support that.
