What is EWC code 20 01 15?
20 01 15 is the European Waste Catalogue (List of Waste) code for alkalines. It sits in chapter 20 (municipal wastes (household waste and similar commercial, industrial and institutional wastes) including separately collected fractions). 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 hazardous waste code. Movements of hazardous waste need a hazardous waste consignment note (not an ordinary waste transfer note), and consignment notes must be kept for at least 3 years.
