ASAE/ASABE S596 – Recycling Plastic Containers from Pesticide and Pesticide-Related Products

This Standard specifies management practices for effectiveness and safety in the handling, cleaning and recycling of used non-refillable, high density polyethylene (HDPE) containers embossed with recycling symbol #2 up to 212 L (56 gal) that originally held pesticides and pesticide-related products (defined in paragraph 2.6) labeled for agriculture, forestry, professional specialty pesticide (defined in paragraph 2.8) use, and structural pest control. Containers that originally held antimicrobial products that are subject to a tolerance or that require an exemption from a tolerance are within the scope of this Standard. Containers that originally held other antimicrobial products, veterinary products, consumer products, or consumer home and garden products are outside the scope of this Standard. Examples of HDPE containers covered by this Standard are shown in Figure 1.
