    Metal-cyanide salts

Non-pumpable metal-cyanide salts or chemicals.

Non-pumpable metal-cyanide salts or chemicals. Cyanide salts that are reactive take the more specific form 313.

Where does Texas form code 312 go in the Texas waste code?

In characters 5–7. The 8-character code is a 4-character stream sequence, then the 3-digit form 312, then a class character. Form 312 describes the stream in the inorganic solids category. It says nothing about hazard. The class character depends on what the stream is made of, where it came from and its properties.

For a hazardous or Class 1 shipment that needs a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, enter the full Texas code in Item 13, across 2 blocks on paper. Add any EPA waste codes. The 3 form digits alone are not enough.

The generator sets the class. Work through the exclusions, then the federal hazardous-waste listings and characteristics, then the Texas industrial-waste criteria. H means hazardous. 1, 2 and 3 are nonhazardous industrial classes. Process knowledge or testing backs the class. Choosing a form doesn't set it.

What does Texas form code 312 cover?

Metal-cyanide salts or chemicals thrown away as nonpumpable inorganic solids. The composition makes it a metal cyanide. Another form names reactive cyanides, so when both descriptions fit, consider the reactive behavior too.

Appendix 3, form 312

Is a solid cyanide chemical Texas form code 312 or 313?

CodeWhen it fits
312Nonpumpable inorganic salt or chemical that is a metal cyanide.
313Cyanide salt or chemical that is reactive.
316Nonpumpable metal salt that is neither a metal cyanide nor another specific reactive form.

Name the metal-cyanide compound and judge its reactivity separately. The rules name reactive cyanides as 313 but don't say they are excluded from 312, so pick the description that best fits the actual stream.

Which wastes take Texas form code 312?
