Safe Chemical Disposal Procedures
Always use the proper disposal jugs located in the hood: the ACETONE
jug for acetone; the ORGANICS jugs for other organic solvents (or organic
solids); the ACID jug for acids such as H2SO4; the
BASE jug for bases such as NaOH solutions or ammonia solutions. If in doubt,
ASK YOUR TA!
Absolutely DO NOT dump things down the drain, unless the procedure
specifically says to do so.
