Subject: safe disposal of NaOH in THF
style='tab-interval:.5in'>
I have a colleague who needs to dispose of NaOH (about 1M) in 50:50 THF/water which has
turned orange
after 1-2 years. Any
thoughts? For example will a peroxide
test be
accurate in the presence of the NaOH? Would it be safe to neutralize
the NaOH?
Thanks,
