    Alkaline liquids and solid alkalis

South Australia C100: the material may be an alkaline liquid or an alkali in solid form.

Alkaline liquids & alkalis in solid form, from caustic solutions to lye. South Australia lists both under one code.

Is South Australia C100 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. This is the SA EPA operational description. A code can be on the operational list without being in the table of waste that needs tracking. The description doesn't approve a receiving facility or a disposal method.

C100 is in the SA table of waste that needs tracking, within the state or interstate. Enter it with the SA description on the WasteTracker transport certificate, against a matching consignment authorisation. The consignor, transporter and receiver each complete their own part. The SA tracking exemptions still apply.

What does South Australia C100 cover?

Alkaline solutions and solid bases (alkalis) go here. The entry sets no pH limit. Victoria has its own C100 pair with a stated threshold and examples.
