[DCHAS-L] Pentaborane
In the past, I contracted with Integrated Environmental Services (IES) out of Atlanta
1445 Marietta Boulevard
Atlanta, GA 30318-4143
Phone: 404-352-2001
At the time, they seemed to be the only company that had the experience and the knowledge to deal with several of the little blue cylinders.
There is also a good disposal article from them at :
and of course, there is the warning document from the manufacturer at:

Please tell the owners to be very careful.
