What does this mean in practice?
This is the official classification for skimmings that are flammable or emit, upon contact with water, flammable gases in hazardous quantities. Because this is a hazardous waste (indicated by the asterisk in the official catalogue), it requires specialised handling, consignment notes, and cannot be mixed with general waste.
