F-listed waste
Residue from heat-treating soil contaminated with listed dioxin waste

F-list process waste.

Toxic F-listed waste. Residues from treating or burning soil contaminated with dioxin wastes such as F020 to F023 & F026.

Is F028 hazardous waste?

Yes. F028 is a nonacute F-listed hazardous waste when the named source process and waste stream match. The federal table gives it hazard code T for toxicity.

F028 is listed by source, so how and where the waste arose decides it, not a concentration test alone. A test can add a characteristic code but doesn't remove the listing once its conditions are met. On a required hazardous waste manifest, put F028 in Item 13. Look up the VSQG exemptions and empty-container rules too.

What does F028 cover?

Residues from incinerating or thermally treating soil contaminated with EPA Hazardous Waste Nos. F020, F021, F022, F023, F026 and F027.

Hazard code: T for toxicity
Rule: 40 CFR 261.31

Is treated soil residue from dioxin waste F028, F027 or F026?

Code	When it fits
F028	Residues from incinerating or thermally treating soil contaminated with the dioxin wastes listed under F028.
F027	Discarded unused formulations containing tri-, tetra- or pentachlorophenol, or compounds derived from those chlorophenols.
F026	Material was made on equipment formerly used with tetra-, penta- or hexachlorobenzene under alkaline manufacturing conditions.

The operation and waste form pick the listing, not the chemical content alone. The rows show nearby listed streams, not every code that could apply. Add any characteristic or other listing that also fits, since one waste can carry more than 1 federal code.

Which wastes take F028?

Waste	When it’s F028
Dioxin-listed process waste	Residue from thermal treatment of soil contaminated with F020, F021, F022, F023, F026 or F027

Which codes sit beside F028?

Code	What it is
F023	Waste from equipment formerly used for chlorophenols
F024	Process residues from making certain chlorinated hydrocarbons
F025	Filters, drying agents and light residues from chlorinated hydrocarbons
F032	Waste from wood preserving with chlorophenol products
F034	Waste from wood preserving with creosote
F035	Waste from wood preserving with arsenic or chromium
F037	Primary oil, water and solids separator sludge from a refinery
F038	Secondary emulsified oil, water and solids sludge from a refinery
