Why would you want to test the waste? We test the solutions generated but not the waste. We dispose of the liquid waste like the rest of our waste, its hauled away by a licensed vendor. The paraffin waste is placed into the trash in the same container its collected in, but we have not had to dispose of one yet.

My question refers both to the paraffin waste from the xylene run and the liquid waste from the alcohol run. Also, how does everyone dipose of that waste. I know laws are different in every state, I am located in PA.
