Treatment bases
and neutral pH
Treatment of Bases and Neutral pH is a service in which recycling companies safely manage alkaline and neutral industrial wastes. The process involves neutralizing, stabilizing, and properly disposing of these materials in compliance with environmental regulations, minimizing hazards, and protecting soil and water from contamination.
The following coditions apply to all TB prefix waste unless noted otherwise. No explosives, radioactives, PCB's, asbestos, mercury, cyanides, sulfides, reactives, controlled substances, oils, organic UHC's or F027. No foul odors (mercaptans etc.)
| TB01 | Uncontaminated base treatment all concentrations. | liquids NAOH, KOH, CaOH, NaHCO3 and Na2CO3 only. <1in solids, no contaminants |
| TB02 | Solid pourable bases to be used as reagent. NaOH, KOH, NaHCO3 and Na2CO3. Will take with no state codes for reuse | Must be pourable. No monolithic solids, no contaminants of any kind |
| TB03 | Base treatment with heavy metals or other contaminants | No ammonia, no bleach, <1% solids, mercury <10ppm |
| TB04 | Base treatment of ammonia | No bleach, <1% solids |
