G150, Halogenated organic solvents.

  • Tasmania

    Halogenated organic solvents

Tasmania publishes G150 in its controlled-waste list; the characteristic test remains relevant.

Used solvents that contain chlorine or other halogens, such as dichloromethane & perchloroethylene.

Is Tasmania G150 hazardous waste?

Not from the code alone. For national-list categories, Tasmania also needs a listed hazardous characteristic, which is presumed unless shown otherwise. Tasmania adds its own controlled wastes too, so read the category and the local rules together.

Put G150 with the specific waste description in the controlled-waste consignment documentation. Record the producer, quantity, form, contaminants, registered transporter and receiver. An incoming interstate controlled load needs EPA Tasmania's consignment authorisation, and another state's certificate doesn't authorise the receiving facility. Follow the Tasmanian handling and transport rules.

What does Tasmania G150 cover?

Halogenated organic solvents go here, and non-halogenated ones are G110. Western Australia marks G150 as the halogenated-solvent entry for material not otherwise specified.
