    Photographic chemical waste

Tasmania publishes T120 in its controlled-waste list; the characteristic test remains relevant.

Wastes from making or using photographic chemicals, such as developer, fixer & silver-bearing solutions.

Is Tasmania T120 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 some controlled wastes of its own, so read the category and the local rules together.

Put T120 with the specific waste description in the controlled-waste consignment documentation. Record the producer, quantity, form, contaminants, registered transporter and receiver. The Tasmanian handling and transport rules apply. An incoming interstate controlled load needs EPA Tasmania's consignment authorisation, and another state's certificate doesn't give the receiving facility that.

What does Tasmania T120 cover?

Waste from making or preparing photographic chemicals or processing materials, or from using them. Production, formulation and use all fit, for photographic chemicals and for materials that process photographs.
