We have been disposing of our alcohols like this for years. This would include
alcoholic eosin too. We are allowed to mix the waste xylene with the alcohols
because they are the same classification, and treated the same way.

Our xylene and alcohol go into a waste drum to be disposed of. We do recycle
both but of course we still have waste to dispose of.

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