RCRA Hazardous Waste Management
Manufacturing operations generating F-listed spent solvents, K-listed process byproducts, and characteristic hazardous waste need a fully compliant RCRA program with Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifesting and LDR certification.
- F-listed spent solvents & degreasers
- K-listed manufacturing process waste
- Characteristic corrosive, ignitable & toxic waste
- Contaminated soil, rags & absorbents
Chemical Inventory & Cleanout
Excess chemical inventory, off-spec products, and discontinued process chemicals must be disposed of as hazardous waste through a licensed facility. Exodus provides chemical inventory assessment and compliant disposal.
- Excess & off-spec raw materials
- Discontinued process chemicals
- Expired industrial reagents & additives
- Emergency spill cleanup waste
Confidential Document Shredding
Manufacturing companies generating trade secret documentation, engineering drawings, supplier contracts, and employee records need certified document destruction to prevent competitive intelligence leakage.
- Proprietary formulas & product specs
- Supplier contracts & pricing
- Engineering drawings & CAD files
- Employee HR & financial records

Facility Types We Serve
Electronics & PCB Manufacturing
Electronics manufacturers using etching chemicals, solvents, and flux materials generate RCRA characteristic and listed hazardous waste requiring licensed disposal.
Food Processing & Packaging
Food manufacturers using cleaning chemicals, sterilants, and packaging solvents generate hazardous process waste — distinct from food waste — requiring RCRA management.
Aerospace & Defense Manufacturing
Aerospace manufacturers using specialty solvents, paint strippers, and metal plating chemicals generate complex K-listed and F-listed RCRA hazardous waste streams.
Printing & Publishing
Print facilities using ink solvents, blanket washes, and fountain solutions generate F-listed RCRA hazardous waste requiring licensed collection and manifesting.
Metal Fabrication & Coating
Metal fabricators generating electroplating waste, chromium-containing materials, and degreasing solvents are subject to strict RCRA requirements with LDR standards.
Chemical Blending & Distribution
Chemical distributors and blenders generating off-spec products, residuals, and contaminated containers must manage them as RCRA hazardous waste with full documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions
LQGs generate ≥2,200 lbs/month of RCRA hazardous waste. They must remove waste within 90 days, provide RCRA training, maintain a contingency plan, and submit biennial reports. SQGs generate 220–2,200 lbs/month and have 270 days. VSQGs generate <220 lbs/month. Generator status determines your regulatory obligations.
Manifests are the cradle-to-grave paper trail for RCRA hazardous waste. They document the generator, waste type, quantity, transporter, and receiving TSDF. Both generator and transporter must sign. Generators keep copies for 3 years. Exodus prepares and manages manifests for every shipment.
LDRs under 40 CFR Part 268 prohibit land disposal of untreated hazardous waste. Generators must provide LDR notifications to TSDFs documenting that waste meets treatment standards before disposal. Exodus prepares LDR notifications for every hazardous waste shipment it manages.
Yes, for some waste streams. Spent solvents can be reclaimed and redistributed. Some metal-containing waste can be recycled for metal recovery. Recycling a hazardous waste under RCRA can reduce or eliminate regulatory requirements — but the recycling process must meet specific EPA conditions. Exodus can evaluate your waste streams for recycling eligibility.
Common RCRA violations at manufacturers include: improper container labeling, exceeding accumulation time limits, missing manifests, failure to perform weekly inspections, inadequate emergency planning, and improper waste characterization. EPA civil penalties can reach $70,117 per day per violation. Exodus's program is designed to prevent these violations.
