    Phenols and phenolic compounds

Queensland M150: chlorophenols are included with other phenols where the catalogue says so.

Phenols & phenol compounds, chlorophenols included. A tracked waste category on the Queensland list.

Is Queensland M150 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. M150 is a Schedule 11 trackable-waste description. Tracking applies while the commercial or industrial waste stays regulated under section 42. Check the Schedule 9 exclusions and the section 42(4) test-out route before treating a movement as trackable. This code has no precedence mark when several descriptions fit.

For a tracked load, enter M150 as the waste code on the Queensland waste transport certificate. The generator completes Part 1, the transporter Part 2 and the receiver Part 3. Lodge it through an approved online, bulk-upload or numbered-paper route. The Queensland exclusions still apply.

What does Queensland M150 cover?

Phenols and phenol compounds, including chlorophenols. Chlorophenols count only because Queensland's list names them in this group.
