We figured out how much of the waste components were actually hazardous, i.e. DAB. Our University safety department then said that the small amount of DAB was safe to pour down the drain but they didn't want the LCS going down the drain. So we dump the aqueous part and the oil part we save and they (safety) come get it and incinerate it.

The sales rep told us it was ok to dump the waste down the drain. THEN we were told that the waste is hazardous and actually causes mutant changes in lab animals. (wow, I could turn into Rogue or Storm! My luck, I'd be Beast or Toad . . . . .) Anyway, can I get some feedback from you guys about how you dispose of the waste from the Benchmark XT? We had someone here to test it, but we're still waiting for results. Thanks!
