Hello!
We are hoping to do some work with the LC this summer using acetonitrile but are concerned about ventilation of the fumes. Our waste currently runs to a bottle that has a closed funnel. Do labs typically have their LC waste container in a fume hood for ventilation?
Our LC is currently in a fairly small room that has one large vent in the ceiling. Any thoughts or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
