    Cadmium and cadmium compounds

NT 2013 table entry D150; confirm that the current system still accepts it before use.

NT controlled waste for cadmium & its compounds. A toxic heavy metal found in nickel-cadmium batteries, plating baths & pigments.

Is NT D150 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 D150 cover?

Cadmium metal and cadmium compounds go here. The entry covers the element as well as its compounds, not one named cadmium compound or process.
