Wool-scouring waste
Tasmania K190: wool scouring is the industrial washing of raw wool.
ComplyOnSiteIs Tasmania K190 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 K190 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 K190 cover?
Effluent, sludge and other residue from cleaning wool go here. The source process sets it apart from animal-processing waste and from ordinary grease or wastewater.
