4.3 Management <br /> f Used oil means any oil that has been refined from crude oil, or any synthetic oil, that <br /> has been used, and, as a result of use or as a consequence of extended storage, or <br /> spillage, has been contaminated with physical or chemical impurities. Examples of used <br /> oil are: <br /> o spent lubricating fluids which have been removed from an engine crankcase, <br /> transmission, gearbox, or differential of an automobile, bus, truck, vessel, plane, <br /> heavy equipment, or machinery powered by an internal combustion enigne; <br /> o industrial oils, including compressor, turbine, and bearing oil; <br /> o hydraulic oil; <br /> o metal-working oil; <br /> o refrigeration oil; and <br /> o railroad drainings. <br /> Used oil must be managed as hazardous waste unless it can be shown that the <br /> contaminants below do not exceed the indicated limits, the oil is not.hazardous by any <br /> },® other characteristics, and the oil is not mixed with any federally listed hazardous waste: <br /> Total arsenic: 5 mg/kg or less <br /> Total cadmium: 2 mg/kg or less <br /> Total chromium: 10 mg/kg or less <br /> Total halogens: 3000 mg/kg or less (however, used oil containing greater than <br /> 1000 mg/kg total halogens is presumed to be mixed with a <br /> federally listed waste, and is thus a hazardous waste, unless it <br /> can be demonstrated that the oil does not contain more than <br /> 1000 mg/kg total halogens Iisted in Appendix VIII of Part <br /> 261, Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations) <br /> Total lead: 50 mg/kg or less <br /> Total PCBs: 2 mg/kg or less <br /> Flashpoint: Minimum Standards by ASTM <br /> Compressor oil extracted from refrigeration and air conditioning equipment is typically <br /> mixed with refrigerant during equipment operation. In the case of a refrigerator or <br /> freezer which typically uses CFC-12 as the refrigerant, the compressor oil will be mixed <br /> with chlorinated fluorocarbons which are halogenated compounds. <br /> Used oil containing more than 1000 mg/kg total halogens is presumed to be mixed with <br /> 17 <br />
