    Chromium compounds

Northern Territory D140: this constituent entry covers both hexavalent and trivalent chromium compounds.

NT controlled waste for chromium compounds, both hexavalent & trivalent. Common in plating baths, tanning liquor & pigments.

Is NT D140 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. A waste code here is an administrative description, not the statutory listed-waste test. NT licensing generally controls listed-waste activities that are commercial or done for a fee. The waste, the activity and the licence conditions all matter.

Every controlled-waste movement into or out of the NT needs a consignment authorisation and a Waste Transfer Certificate. Its waste-code field takes the accepted code with a description. The November 2024 guide makes online tracking within the NT voluntary, but licensed operators still keep records and report volumes under their licence conditions. For a controlled border movement, enter the accepted code in that field. Read the NT code currency and movement rules first.

What does NT D140 cover?

Chromium compounds go here, in both the trivalent and hexavalent forms. The entry covers the chemical group, not one named compound or process.
