HAZARDOUS WASTE

TRANSPORTATION

The transportation of cellulose nitrate films is regulated by both the US DOT and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). Cellulose nitrate-based films are considered hazardous materials under USDOT and hazardous wastes by USEPA.

You are required to include the Shipping Name, ID Number, Hazard Class, and Hazard Label on the shipping papers that accompany the films for destruction:

Shipping Name

Waste

 

Nitrocellulose, wet

 

with not less than

 

25% water, D001,

 

D003, D011*

 

 

Identification

UN 2555

Number

 

 

 

Hazard Class

4.1

 

 

Hazard Label

Flammable solid

 

 

*Include EPA Waste Code D011 only for shipping those films that are in one of the last three stages of decomposition.

Package waste nitrocellulose-based films with not less than 25-percent water and label as a flammable solid:

Packaging

Specifications

 

 

Steel drum

1A1, 1A2

 

 

Plastic drum

1H1, 1H2

 

 

Waste nitrocellulose-based films must be transported by a carrier that is authorized by USDOT and USEPA to transport hazardous waste. A hazardous waste manifest and a Land Disposal Restriction Form must accompany the material during transport.

DESTRUCTION

Once your cellulose nitrate film is determined to be a hazardous waste, you need to ship it to a treatment facility as soon as possible, following the transportation requirements outlined above.

The appropriate treatment technology for cellulose nitrate film is incineration. The incinerating facility is required to have an RCRA permit to treat all EPA Hazardous Waste Numbers associated with your waste. This includes D001, D003, and possibly D011, depending on the decomposition stage of the film.

There are many facilities in the United States that are permitted to manage these types of waste. The following companies provide trans- portation and waste treatment. This list is provided for your convenience and does not constitute a recommendation or endorsement by Kodak:
