What is EWC code 02 02 01?
02 02 01 is the European Waste Catalogue (List of Waste) code for sludges from washing and cleaning. It sits in chapter 02 (wastes from agriculture, horticulture, aquaculture, forestry, hunting and fishing, food preparation and processing). You use this six-digit code to classify the waste on a waste transfer note, a hazardous waste consignment note, or a Digital Waste Tracking record.
This is a non-hazardous waste code. Transfers need a waste transfer note, which both parties must keep for at least 2 years.
