Hazardous Debris Waste Processing Training
- 1. Purdue University Chemical Waste Debris Pick-Up Training
- 2. What if...
- 3. After today’s training, you will be able to: 1. explain the Chemical Debris Waste Pick-Up SOP. 2. explain how the SOP ensures compliance and the consequences of non- compliance. 3. determine which waste must be processed / containerized and what may be stored “as is” in the building. 4. use the profile book and explain the characteristics of the most commonly used profiles to process debris waste. 5. elaborate on Adam’s expectation that all debris waste be processed and identify when it is reasonable to store non-hazardous debris waste.
- 4. Regulations & Permits If you had to, could you explain the regulations dictating storage rules in HWMF? Is there a general rule that you follow when bringing waste into the building? Do you know what the associated fines are for non-compliance?
- 6. Inventory Labels Room # Description Hazard codes
- 8. Using the Profile Book
- 21. What Does “Not Enough Time” Mean? When is it appropriate to store non-hazardous waste? What are some circumstances that might make storing non-hazardous debris waste necessary?

- ¥ Elaborate on why you chose what you did... ¥ Did you all agree with these choices? Why or why not? ¥ Why was the waste stored? Put into an accumulation container? ¥ How did you know where to put the waste? ¥ What might have happened if a surprise EPA inspection occurred that day?
- Discuss regulations dictating hazardous waste storage at HWMF: ¥ If you had to, could you explain the regulations dictating storage rules in HWMF? All hazardous waste entering HMMF must be stored in a sealed container. ¥ Is there a general rule that you follow when bringing waste into the building? ¥ Do you know what the associated fines are for non-compliance? (Answers?) There is a maximum fine of $32,500 per day per violation ¥ What are the ramifications of non-compliance for this group? The University? Disciplinary action up to termination for the staff member responsible for the violation Fines, bad press, embarrassment and loss of credibility
- -012: Non-hazardous Waste (Chemotherapy) ¥ Ethidium Bromide, Non-Regulated (but highly toxic) Chemotherapy Agents ¥ Example: tubes, gloves, paper, glass, needles (in sharps containers) ¥ Room:106 -013: Hazardous & Non-hazardous Wastes ¥ Oil, paint solids, Organic-based resins ¥ Organic Solvents ¥ Heavy Metal ( e.g. arsenic or selenium) ¥ Example: oil-soaked rags, debris contaminated with hazardous wastes ¥ Room: 115, 119 -015: Hazardous Waste (Mercury) ¥ Example: Broken mercury thermometer, mercury spill cleanup debris (e.g. absorbent material, sulfur (mercuric sulfate), mercury contaminated material ( e.g. Metal/Hg amalgam) ¥ Room: 106 -016: Hazardous Waste (Heavy Metal) ¥ Example: Lead based paint chips from sand blasting operations, growth media contaminated with heavy metals ( e.g. agarose gel contaminated with selenium and arsenic), other heavy metal waste (metal amalgams) ¥ Room: 115, 119 -060: Hazardous Waste (Sharps) ¥ Example: syringes, razor blades, needles, and other sharps contaminated with hazardous waste (organic solvents or F-coded wastes) ¥ Room: 115 -032: Hazardous Waste (Spill Debris) ¥ Consult chemist ¥ Example: absorbent materials, PPE, broken glass, cardboard contaminated with hazardous waste (could include any and all types of hazardous wastes including acutely toxic wastes (U and P coded wastes)). ¥ Room: 115, 116, 119
- Ask staff to come to consensus about this expectation and to establish a group norm. When is it appropriate to store non-hazardous debris waste? What are the consequences of not processing non-hazardous debris waste? What are some circumstances that might make storing non-hazardous debris waste necessary?
