Annual Reporting Management Method Codes

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.
