Chromium compounds
New South Wales D140: this constituent entry covers both hexavalent and trivalent chromium compounds.
ComplyOnSiteIs NSW D140 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. D140 describes waste that may need tracking. Part 4 tracking needs a matching Schedule 1 waste description and a Part 3 hazardous characteristic. That test is separate from the NSW disposal classification, and the code gives no disposal class. Part 4 covers local and interstate movements.
Where tracking applies, enter D140 in the waste-code field of the IWTS Movement, with the description, quantity, parties and the receiver's Movement Authorisation. The approved system issues the Movement reference. The NSW tracking exemptions still apply.
What does NSW D140 cover?
Chromium compounds, both trivalent and hexavalent. The group is chromium compounds as a whole, not one named compound or process.
