You should be recycling both xylene and alcohol. Cost savings compared to
disposal cost will pay for a recycler in 3-5 years.

Subject: [Histonet] Waste Alcohol
Hello to all in histoland. Is there anyone putting alcohol into a waste drum
like for xylene. We have a company that takes away our xylene. Now the safety
people are suggesting that we treat the alcohol the same way. We have always
poured the alcohol down the drain. It seems very expensive. Your help in this
matter will be greatly appreciated.
