7A34
- Low Activity Liquids (excluding Hg)
Contaminated liquids originate from four main sources: cutting oil from machining operations, lubrication oils, spent oil from vacuum pumps and sludge from liquid effluent treatment. Machining operations provide the most heavily contaminated wastes from the presence of swarf, whilst the other processes contain fine particulate. Other liquids include coolants, chemicals and chiller solutions.

- Pyrochemical Wastes
Wastes were generated from processes used to refine metals.

7A37
- Contaminated Mercury
Elemental mercury used in electrical switches, vacuum pumps, thermometers and general experimental work. The contamination is physically associated with the waste and not chemically bound.

7A41
- Cemented Sludges
Effluent treatment using ferric floc precipitation process to remove radioactivity from aqueous waste streams, which have originated from uranium and plutonium operations, and been cemented.
