    Spent solid filters or adsorbents

The discarded medium is a nonpumpable inorganic solid.

Spent nonpumpable inorganic filter or adsorbent material. Spent carbon takes form 404, and pumpable material a sludge form.

Where does Texas form code 310 go in the Texas waste code?

In characters 5–7. The 8-character code is a 4-character stream sequence, then the 3-digit form 310, then a class character. Form 310 describes the stream in the inorganic solids category. It says nothing about hazard. The class character depends on what the stream is made of, where it came from and its properties.

For a hazardous or Class 1 shipment that needs a Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest, enter the full Texas code in Item 13, across 2 blocks on paper. Add any EPA waste codes. The 3 form digits alone are not enough.

The generator sets the class. Work through the exclusions, then the federal hazardous-waste listings and characteristics, then the Texas industrial-waste criteria. H means hazardous. 1, 2 and 3 are nonhazardous industrial classes. Process knowledge or testing backs the class. Choosing a form doesn't set it.

What does Texas form code 310 cover?

Spent filters or adsorbent media that are mainly inorganic and nonpumpable. Filters strain material out of a moving stream, and adsorbents hold it on their surface. Spent carbon has its own, more specific entry.

Is a spent filter or adsorbent Texas form code 310 or 404?

CodeWhen it fits
310Spent filter or adsorbent that is a mainly inorganic nonpumpable solid. Spent carbon has its own form.
404Spent adsorbent that is carbon.
489Nonpumpable organic solid best described as petroleum-contaminated material.

Name the filter or adsorbent medium, what it caught and its physical form when discarded.

Which wastes take Texas form code 310?

WasteWhen it’s 310
Oily rags and absorbentsSpent nonpumpable inorganic filters or adsorbents.
Spent oil filtersOrdinary spent inorganic filters that don't go by the separate oil-filter route.
Spent filter cartridges or filter mediaA spent filter or adsorbent, not a pumpable sludge.
Spent absorbents and spill padsA spent adsorbent. Petroleum-contaminated solids can use 489 instead when it describes them best.
