    Ethers (oxygen-linked organic compounds)

National reporting G100: in an ether, one oxygen atom joins two carbon-bearing groups.

Ethers, organic liquids with an oxygen atom joining 2 carbon groups. A national reporting category for solvent waste.

Is National G100 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. G100 is a DCCEEW hazardous-waste reporting category that groups data nationally. It doesn't make every material with this description hazardous. State and territory rules decide the classification, exclusions and movement duties for a load.

Use G100 in the national waste-data category field when reporting under that standard. It isn't a national transport certificate. A movement needs the origin state or territory's accepted code and record, plus any destination consignment authorisation for an interstate controlled load. Apply separate interstate movement controls. A reporting code gives no state movement classification.

What does National G100 cover?

Ether waste falls here in the lists with the narrower G100 description. The chemical separates it from non-halogenated solvents under G110 and halogenated solvents under G150.
