Organic cyanides and nitriles
New South Wales M210: this entry joins organic cyanides with nitriles; inorganic cyanides belong under A130.
ComplyOnSiteIs NSW M210 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. M210 marks a waste that may need tracking. Tracking under Part 4 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 M210 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. NSW tracking exemptions still apply.
What does NSW M210 cover?
Organic cyanides and nitriles. The wording takes in nitriles as well as organic cyanides. Inorganic cyanides fall outside it and use A130.

Is organic cyanide waste NSW M210 or A130?
| Code | When it fits |
|---|---|
| M210 | The waste contains an organic cyanide or nitrile. |
| A130 | The cyanide is inorganic, not organic. |
Check the waste description and the movement scope. A match in another state or territory doesn't carry NSW's classification or tracking conditions over.
