    Sludges or solid waste containing other solvents

Hazardous waste code for sludges or solid wastes containing other solvents, left over from solvent and refrigerant use.

Is 14 06 05* hazardous?

Yes, unless an assessment shows it isn’t. 14 06 05* has an asterisk, and WM3 lists it as mirror hazardous. It is the hazardous side of a choice between codes, decided by assessing the waste under WM3.

The list pairs it with no code that isn’t hazardous.

As hazardous waste it moves on a hazardous waste consignment note, not a waste transfer note. Hazardous waste EWC codes
