HP 6Acute Toxicity

EWC codes that commonly carry this hazard property

15 of 68 entries from the UK List of Wastes.

These are EWC entries that typically carry this hazard property, not a determination that any particular load does. Under WM3, whether a hazard property applies depends on the substances actually present and their concentrations — the producer is responsible for assessing each consignment.

• 03 02 01non-halogenated organic wood preservativeshazardousNon-halogenated organic wood preservatives — biocidal actives are acutely toxic and ecotoxic.
• 03 02 02organochlorinated wood preservativeshazardousOrganochlorinated wood preservatives (e.g. pentachlorophenol) — acutely toxic, carcinogenic and ecotoxic; PCP is a listed POP.
• 03 02 03organometallic wood preservativeshazardousOrganometallic wood preservatives (e.g. tributyltin, organo-copper) — acutely toxic and ecotoxic.
• 03 02 04inorganic wood preservativeshazardousInorganic wood preservatives (e.g. CCA — chromated copper arsenate) — acutely toxic, carcinogenic (Cr VI, As) and ecotoxic.
