About this file

This document provides descriptions for precious metal-bearing scrap commodities codes (SCLs) for photographic films and papers, chemical recovery cartridges, silver batteries, platinum and palladium-bearing materials, silver-plated materials, gold-plated materials, and various high-purity precious metal materials. The related federal contract opportunity is a solicitation from the Defense Logistics Agency seeking a contractor to perform precious metals recovery services for materials classified within the defined SCLs, including processing photographic waste, exhausted cartridges, batteries, and other scrap containing precious metals like silver, gold, and platinum.

ATTACHMENT 1 : SCL DESCRIPTIONS

LSN/SCL DEFINITION

DS000P04A/B

(P04)

Photographic films and papers (exposed, unexposed, processed, or unprocessed), x-ray, graphic arts, motion picture, phototype setting, aerial, black and white, processed, and other types of silver-bearing photographic film and paper. (EXCLUDES: colored paper, 3-M reader printer paper, microfiche masters and films, and magnetic film.) Ash from photographic films and papers generated from the incineration of exposed, unexposed, processed, or unprocessed color film and other types of silver-bearing photographic film and paper

DS000P06A/B

(P06)

Exhausted chemical recovery cartridges used for recovery of silver from hypo solution by metallic displacement, includes sludge recovered from cartridges, Exhausted passive silver recovery cells used for recovery from photo fixer (hypo solution).

DS000P12A/B

(P12)

All Silver batteries (to include mercury containing, will be identified if containing mercury).

EXAMPLES OF BATTERIES: Silver chloride magnesium batteries. Battery construction consists of silver chloride positive plates w/aluminum-zinc magnesium alloy negative plates and uses water as the electrolyte. Silver zinc submarine batteries consisting of large (30 lbs. and over) batteries/cells, when in use, are interconnected to form one large battery. Cases may be of fiberglass or plastic construction. (EXAMPLES: primarily research and DSRV submarine batteries) Silver-cadmium batteries, Silver-bearing batteries not otherwise classifiable, Silver zinc batteries or battery cell sections which are in plastic, Silver zinc batteries encased in metal or have metallic attachments. Silver-bearing batteries not otherwise classifiable

DS000P8AA/B

(P8A)

Platinum family (platinum, palladium) bearing and plated materials. Includes significant platinum-bearing hazardous material, High temp alloys containing precious metals such as stator vanes, aircraft exhaust cones and aircraft panels; (EXCLUDES: spark plugs, thermocouples, and breakers.)

DS000P8BA/B

(P8B)

Silver-bearing washed/plated material to include significant silver-bearing hazardous materials/waste (Example: Silver paint/Silver paint debris, cyanide-based silver-plating sludge).

DS000P8CA/B

(P8C)

Gold-bearing washed/plated property to include significant gold-bearing hazardous materials.

(Example: Gold-bearing sealant/Gap Filler).

DS000P8EA/B

(P8E)

Sorted electrical/electronic scrap containing gold, silver, platinum family metals which is predominantly copper based and may contain insignificant amounts of other non-removable metals, e.g., iron, aluminum, etc.; includes but not limited to, circuit boards/cards w/o metal frames/backs although a small amount of metal is acceptable, plastic housed connectors, silver/silver coated wire and circuit breakers, Platinum-bearing spark plugs (usually from aircraft), Platinum-bearing thermocouples and magnetos

*DS000VGMA/B

(VGM)

High-purity gold bearing material such as powder, salts, foil, leaf and pellets; dental castings, brazing alloys, dental lingual bars or alloy gold wire and all other gold bearing materials with 90% purity or better.

*DS000VPMA/B

(VPM)

High-purity platinum family bearing material such as dental alloys, scraps, sweepings, jewelry, laboratory ware, wire and all other platinum family bearing materials with 90% purity or better.

*DS000VSMA/B

(VSM)

High-purity silver bearing material consisting of used anodes, drillings from anodes and grain silver, wire for welding or brazing, and all other silver with 75% or better purity.

* = Unit of measure is grams for all high-purity “V”-coded SCLs
