    Zinc compounds

Queensland D230 has no marked precedence when several descriptions fit.

Compounds of zinc, not the plain metal, such as galvanising & plating chemicals. Has its own Queensland waste code.

Is Queensland D230 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. D230 is a Schedule 11 trackable-waste description. A load is tracked while the commercial or industrial waste stays regulated under section 42. Check the Schedule 9 exclusions and the section 42(4) test-out route first, as they decide whether a movement is trackable. D230 has no precedence mark when several descriptions fit.

For a tracked load, enter D230 in the waste-code field of the Queensland waste transport certificate. The generator fills in Part 1, the transporter Part 2 and the receiver Part 3. Lodge it online, by bulk upload or on numbered paper, whichever route is approved. The Queensland exclusions still apply.

What does Queensland D230 cover?

Waste with zinc compounds in it falls here. The entry goes by zinc compound content, not by one named compound, process or physical form.
