• The following waste types shall be lab packed.DO NOT puncture aerosol cans with the <br /> following ingredients: <br /> • Ethyl ether <br /> • Chlorinated compounds <br /> • Oven cleaners <br /> • Pesticides <br /> • Freons and foamers <br /> • Cylinders <br /> • Fire extinguishers <br /> • Dioxins* <br /> • Unknowns <br /> *Dioxin waste types include unknown herbicides,pentachlorophenol,silvex,2,4,5-TP,Woodlife, <br /> hexachlorophene,Ronnel,2,4,5-T,trichlorophenol,and fenchlorophos. <br /> 7.3.3 Waste aerosol container markings <br /> Mark aerosol waste lab pack container with the words: <br /> • Inside packages comply with prescribed specifications. <br /> • DOTE-11396 <br /> • All other markings as specified with the state-contracted hazardous waste disposal <br /> company. <br /> 7.4 Puncturing aerosol containers <br /> Faeility staff shall always gfound steel dfums pfief to stat4ing the aefesel punewfing pfeeess.To <br /> gfound steel dfums,at4aeh one end of a bending wife to the dfum and attaeh the othef end to an <br /> electrical ground.For more information on grounding,see Attachment A of SOP 4.5 Waste Bulking. <br /> To puncture aerosol cans: <br /> • Presort cans into similar sizes to avoid adjusting the puncturing unit more than necessary. <br /> • Remove lid from the aerosol container(spray nozzles do not need to be removed). <br /> • Regulate the pressure release by slowly lowering and raising the puncturing unit's handle.This <br /> minimizes pressure build-up and leakage around the puncturing unit's gasket. <br /> • Watch for"fume rings"around the escape valve of the aerosol-puncturing device,as the <br /> collection filter of the aerosol-puncturing device will not be able to collect all of the propellant <br /> gas as it is released. <br /> • It is recommended that cans that contain solvents,degreasers,and lubricants be punctured last <br /> to help clean out puncturing unit. <br /> • Use pressure-release valves to avoid over and under pressure problems due to temperature <br /> fluctuations.Valves with micropore membranes fit containers with 3/4-inch bungs and can be <br /> used while storing and transporting containers. <br /> • Aerosol can devices puncture and capture the can contents during the aerosol bulking process. <br /> There are two types of can puncturing equipment:manual and mechanical. <br /> 4.6 Aerosol Can Puncturing Procedures 5 <br />
