The mixture rule states that any mixture of a listed hazardous waste and a non-hazardous waste remains regulated as a hazardous waste. Mixtures of characteristic wastes and non-hazardous waste are regulated as hazardous waste if the resultant mixture continues to exhibit the characteristic.
1 Wash the cannula in soapy water and rinse it with a solution of 10 parts water and one part vinegar. 2  Rinse thoroughly with hot water and hang to dry.  This connects the nasal cannula to the oxygen concentrator. It doesnât need to be cleaned, but plan to replace it every 6 to 12 months advises the ATS.
Re: oxygen permeation, there you have a bigger problem. Barrier pipe conforms to DIN 4726 - i.e. enough of a barrier not to cause corrosion. Non-barrier pipe will allow at least 50 times more oxygen in and in the UK's case more like 200x the amount (since the standard is based on UFH temps of approx 40c or less).e: oxygen permeation, there you have a bigger problem.
