*Several EWC codes fall within the waste oil fraction. Determine the correct classification for your waste using the safety data sheet or contact SAR for advice.
Waste oil can be sent in tanks, IBCs, jerrycans or tight-head drums.
The oil is mainly used as heating oil in various processes, i.e. for energy recovery. Water is drained off and sent to SAR Mongstad for water treatment.
The packaging must be UN-approved and suitable for storing and transporting waste oil.
If a data sheet is available, it must be attached to the declaration.
If the waste is a mixture of waste oil and another chemical (e.g. glycol), it must be declared as 7152.
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.
