The ASTM D5833-12 (2020) Standard Guide is designed to help government officials and business and industry managers understand how to reduce, reuse, recycle, or dispose of steel tanks. Focusing on steel tanks with a capacity of 5 gallons (wet) or 40 pounds (dry), this guide outlines the life cycle management of steel tanks and provides basic information on source reduction and disposal. Containers over five gallons (such as 55 gallon drums) will be detailed in the Miscellaneous Guide depending on how they are used and managed. This standard does not cover all safety issues. Users need to establish appropriate safety and health measures and ensure compliance with relevant regulations before implementation.
