Jennifer,

Based on the SDS I'd package it for my waste vendor to take an nonRCRA but environmentally toxic liquid.

Hello DCHAS,

One of the faculty from Physics has asked about disposal of Ultima Gold Scintillation cocktail. He has about 7L of expired product. It is not radioactive.


I admit I'm a bit stumped beyond packaging for our hazardous waste disposal team to take care of. Any advice or suggestions?

Thank you,
Jennifer.
