European Waste Catalogue
Spent halogen-free machining emulsions and solutions are 12 01 09 — a hazardous entry. Halogen-containing emulsions are 12 01 08 and neat machining oils 12 01 07 or 12 01 10.
Also searched as: cutting fluid, metalworking emulsion, suds, coolant emulsion
The European Waste Catalogue codes waste by the process it arises from, not just the material. Pick the row that matches where your machining coolant is generated — each code links to its full classification, valorisation routes and receiving industries.
Halogen-free machining emulsions
Machining emulsions and solutions containing halogens
Halogen-containing machining emulsions
Machining emulsions and solutions containing halogens
Halogen-free machining oils (mineral)
