    Vanadium compounds

Queensland D270 has no marked precedence when several descriptions fit.

Compounds of vanadium, found in catalyst waste & steel-making dust. A tracked waste category.

Is Queensland D270 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. D270 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. D270 has no precedence mark when several descriptions fit.

For a tracked load, enter D270 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 D270 cover?

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