    Wool-scouring waste

South Australia K190: wool scouring is the industrial washing of raw wool.

Wool scouring wastes in South Australia. Scouring is the industrial washing of raw wool.

Is South Australia K190 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. The SA EPA operational code list and its table of waste requiring tracking are separate, so a code can be on one and not the other. The description doesn't approve a receiving facility or a disposal method.

K190 is in the SA table for waste requiring tracking, within the state or interstate. Enter it with the SA description on the WasteTracker transport certificate, against a matching consignment authorisation. The consignor, transporter and receiver each complete their own part. The SA tracking exemptions still apply.

What does South Australia K190 cover?

Effluent, sludge and other residue from cleaning wool go here. The process sets it apart from animal-processing waste and from unrelated grease or wastewater.
