The EWC is divided into 20 chapters, most of which are industry-based, although some are based on materials and processes.  Individual waste types are assigned a six-digit code: the first two digits specify the chapter, the next two specify the subchapter, and the last two are specific to the waste type. [[Hazardous Waste]] is signified by entries where the six-digit EWC code is marked by an asterisk (*)<ref name="foo" />.
