Several EWC codes and transport classifications fall within this fraction. Some catalysts may require transport classification. Determine the correct classification for your waste using the safety data sheet or contact SAR for advice
The waste can be sent in drums. If the waste has a transport classification, UN-approved packaging must be used.
The waste can be recycled as material, but is mainly sent to landfill.
If a data sheet is available, it must be attached to the declaration.
Spent catalyst material may in some cases be oxidising and spontaneously combustible. Clear, highly visible labelling is important, and the labelling must accurately reflect the contents of the package. The data sheet and other relevant information must be attached to the declaration.
The waste guide uses technical terms and codes to describe how different types of waste should be identified, classified, and handled. This makes it easier to find the correct waste fraction and comply with requirements for sorting, packaging, and delivery.
