Subject: HF digestion safety

Does anyone on this list have experience with proper exhaust design  
for small scale digestion using 48% HF?  The geochemistry researcher I  
am working with anticipates evaporating 2 liters of concentrated HF  
per month in a fume hood.

I am interested in scrubbing technologies and if anyone has designed  
local exhaust systems that do not involve a fume hood.

Thanks

Joe
