13. Considerations regarding elimination| 13.1 | Substance or preparation: | | In the European Union, there are no homogeneous standards established for elimination of chemical waste, which is waste of a special nature, and treatment and elimination of same is subject to the domestic legislation in each country. In view of this, in each case, you should contact the competent authority or those companies legally authorized for elimination of waste.
2001/573/EC: Council Decision of 23 July 2001 amending Commission Decision 2000/532/EC as regards the list of wastes.
Council Directive 91/156/EEC of 18 March 1991 amending Directive 75/442/EEC on waste.
| | 13.2 | Contaminated containers: | | Contaminated containers and packaging of dangerous substances or preparations must be treated in the same manner as the actual products contained in them.
European Parliament and Council Directive 94/62/EC of 20 December 1994 on packaging and packaging waste.
