Hmmm. These people really sound useful in the art and theater shops whe

We utilize a high hazard deactivation specialist to deactivate peroxide con
taining materials. The specialist utilizes a hydraulic remote opening devic
e to open expired peroxide forming chemicals. Once the container is open th
e material is deactivated using
ferrous salts, amines, aqueous sodium metabisulfite and stannous chloride,
and sodium hydroxide. The deactivation material will depend on the type of
peroxide former. Our hazardous waste hauler accepts the material once it i
s deactivated.
