Cordless Fuel Cartridge Disposal Guidelines
Duo-Fast
®
an industry leader in cordless technology provides this information to assist users with the proper disposal of discar
ded
fuel cartridges. Acceptable disposal options vary depending on the type of fuel cartridge users. All users must consider
federal, state
and local solid waste regulations to ensure that discarded fuel cartridges are disposed of properly. Users must contact their local solid
waste disposal authority for further guidance.
Discarded fuel cartridges (used or unused) may be considered hazardous waste under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA) depending on several factors as described in the paragraphs that follow. Upon disposal used and unused fuel cartridges may
be classified as ignitable hazardous waste (waste code D001) under U.S. EPA regulations.
Hazardous waste generated by homeowners and contractors who perform routine maintenance for homeowners in their homes are
not regulated by RCRA. In general, "household wastes" generated by homeowners and their contractors are exempt from hazard-
ous waste regulation because those wastes are expressly excluded from the definition of hazardous waste. For example US EPA
has excluded as "houshold waste" aerosol cans that contain residual product and propellent. Thus under federal hazardous waste
regulations homeowners and contractors may dispose of discarded fuel cells as general refuse in a properly permitted municipal
landfill. These users must still contact their local solid waste authority to determine if any state or local regulation prohibits or
restricts such disposal.
