    Ethers (oxygen-linked organic compounds)

New South Wales G100: in an ether, one oxygen atom joins two carbon-bearing groups.

Ethers, a group of organic chemicals with 1 oxygen atom between carbon groups, often flammable. Diethyl ether is a common example.

Is NSW G100 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. G100 marks waste that may need tracking. Part 4 requires a matching Schedule 1 waste description and a Part 3 hazardous characteristic. That is a tracking test, not the NSW disposal classification, and the code gives no disposal class. Part 4 covers local and interstate movements.

Where Part 4 tracking applies, enter G100 in the waste-code field of the IWTS Movement, with the description, quantity, parties and the receiver's applicable Movement Authorisation. The approved system issues the Movement reference. The NSW tracking exemptions still apply.

What does NSW G100 cover?

Ether waste, under the narrower G100 description. Chemical identity tells it apart from the non-halogenated solvent code G110 and the halogenated solvent code G150.

Is ether waste NSW G100?
