- e.g. CH₂Cl₂, CHCl₃. No acids, no metals, no oxidisers.
- Contents (full names, no formulae; approx. %):
- Hazards (tick):
- Start date:
- Full date:
- Owner / group:
- Lab / room / phone:
- NON-HALOGENATED SOLVENT WASTE
- e.g. acetone, EtOAc, hexane, MeOH. No oxidisers or conc. acids.
- AQUEOUS ACID WASTE
- pH < 2. No cyanides, sulfides or bases. Never add water to conc. acid.
- AQUEOUS BASE WASTE
- pH > 12. No acids, no ammonium salts with bleach.
- HEAVY METAL WASTE
- Hg, Pb, Cd, Cr(VI), Cu, Ni … list every metal and its form.
- SECONDARY CONTAINER
