Document Date: 1995-02-06

Organization of Recipient: Williams & Anderson
Description: Dust collected in an air filtration system is not a sludge since filtration is intended to recover dust, not control pollution. Collected dust is a spent material. Heating and distillation are considered reclamation processes. The regulatory status of recycled acrylic plastic dust generated from plastic media blasting is discussed. Because a spent material is being reclaimed before use, it is not eligible for the 261.2(e) exclusion.
