Disposing of filters with UV coating on them

Disposing of filters with UV coating on them

Disposing of filters with UV coating on them

(OP)
I am looking to install a semi-down draft dry spray booth to spray UV coatings within.

The questions I have are:

Is the UV coatings, like the ones typically used on wood furniture, greater than an ignitability flash point less than 140 degrees F.

Are the dry filters, which are expected to accumulate UV coating over time and will be replaced daily, able to passs the candidate waste characteristic (ignitability(where the flash point is less than 140 degrees F))

This determinationmust be made on the material and the spent filters containing the coating.

Lastly, can I just react the dry coating on the filter w/ a portable UV curing light and then toss the filter into the trash without breaking some environmental law?
