Hazardous Waste Exclusions for Hazardous Secondary Materials and Solvent Recycling

EPA’s new final rule on the definition of solid waste creates new opportunities for waste recycling outside the scope of the full hazardous waste regulations. This rule introduces streamlined requirements for wastes that are legitimately recycled.

 

The first of the two new exclusions is an exclusion from the definition of solid waste for high-value solvents transferred from one manufacturer to another for the purpose of extending the useful life of the original solvent by keeping the materials in commerce as a commercial grade of the original solvent.

 

The second, and more wide-reaching exclusion, is an expansion of the existing hazardous secondary material recycling exclusion. This exclusion allows you to recycle, or send off-site for recycling, virtually any hazardous secondary material. Provided you meet the terms of the exclusion, the material will no longer be hazardous waste.

 

Learn how to take advantage of these exclusions at this interactive web-based session, where you will learn:

  • Which of your materials qualify for the new exclusions
  • What is a hazardous secondary material
  • Which solvents can be remanufactured, and which cannot
  • What is a tolling agreement
  • What is legitimate recycling
  • Storage and labeling requirements for hazardous secondary materials
  • What documentation you must maintain
  • Requirements for off-site shipments
  • Training and emergency planning requirements
  • Can your hazardous secondary material be recycled outside the U.S.
