Management Method codes
describe the type of hazardous waste management system used to treat or dispose
a hazardous waste. Review the groups
and pick the appropriate code.

Management Method Description
|
|
Reclamation and
Recovery |
|
H010 |
Metals recovery
including retorting, smelting, chemical, etc. |
|
H020 |
Solvents recovery
(distillation, extraction, etc.) |
|
H039 |
Other recovery or
reclamation for reuse including acid regeneration, organics recovery, etc.
(specify in comments) |
|
H050 |
Energy recovery at
this site - used as fuel (includes on-site fuel blending before energy
recovery; report only this code) |
|
H061 |
Fuel blending prior
to energy recovery at another site (waste generated either on site or
received from off site) |
|
Destruction or
Treatment Prior to Disposal at Another Site |
|
H040 |
Incineration -
thermal destruction other than use as a fuel (includes any preparation prior
to burning) |
|
H071 |
Chemical reduction
with or without precipitation (includes any preparation or final processes
for consolidation of residuals). |
|
H073 |
Cyanide destruction
with or without precipitation (includes any preparation or final processes
for consolidations of residuals) |
|
H075 |
Chemical oxidation
(includes any preparation or final processes for consolidation of
residuals). |
|
H076 |
Wet air oxidation
(includes any preparation or final processes for consolidation of
residuals). |
|
H077 |
Other chemical
precipitation with or without pre-treatment (includes processes for
consolidation of residuals). |
|
H081 |
Biological treatment
with or without precipitation (includes any preparation or final processes
for consolidation of residuals). |
|
H082 |
Adsorption (as the
major component of treatment) |
|
H083 |
Air or steam
stripping(as the major component of treatment) |
|
H101 |
Sludge treatment
and/or dewatering(as the major component of treatment; not H071-H075, H077,
or H082) |
|
H103 |
Absorption (as the
major component of treatment) |
|
H111 |
Stabilization or
chemical fixation prior to disposal at another site (as the major component
of treatment; not H071-H075, H077, or H082) |
|
H112 |
Macro-encapsulation
prior to disposal at another site (as the major component of treatment; not
reportable as H071-H075, H077, or H082) |
|
H121 |
Neutralization only
(no other treatment) |
|
H122 |
Evaporation (as the
major component of treatment; not reportable as H071-H083) |
|
H123 |
Settling or
clarification (as the major component of treatment; not reportable as
H071-H083) |
|
H124 |
Phase separation (as
the major component of treatment; not reportable as H071-H083) |
|
H129 |
Other treatment
(specify in comments; not reportable as H071-H124) |
|
Disposal |
|
H131 |
Land treatment or
application (to include any prior treatment and/or stabilization)
|
|
H132 |
Landfill or surface
impoundment that will be closed as landfill (to include prior treatment
and/or stabilization) |
|
H134 |
Deepwell or
underground injection (with or without treatment; this waste was counted as
hazardous waste) |
|
H135 |
Discharge to sewer/POTW
or NPDES (with prior storage - with or without treatment) |
|
Storage/Transfer
Off Site |
|
H141 |
The site receiving
this waste stored/bulked and transferred the waste with no treatment or
recovery (H010-H129), fuel blending (H061), or disposal (H131-H135) at that
receiving site. |
