D7 | Release into a sea or ocean, including sea-bed insertion, other than by the operation set out in D4 |
D8 | Biological treatment, not otherwise set out in this table |
D9 | Physical or chemical treatment, not otherwise referred to in this table, [such as evaporation, drying, calcination, neutralization or precipitation] Example that needs to be deleted? |
D10 | Incineration and thermal treatment on land |
D11 | Incineration and thermal treatment at sea |
D12 | Permanent storage |

Footnote
D1-D12, D16 and D18 operations are considered to constitute final disposal;
Whereas,
D13-D15 and D17 operations are considered intermediary operations which will lead to final disposal; and
D15 refers to the interim storage operations undertaken at transfer stations.

R17 | Operations, other than R1 to R11 or R14, as defined by the regulatory authority |
Footnote
R1-R11, R14 and R17 operations are considered to constitute recycling operations;
