Disposing of Etchant.

2010-02-26 by Jachin

I am planning to follow one of recipes for making copper etchant from hydrochloric acid,and was wondering how I should dispose of the used etchant?  I know that there are methods for refreshing the etchant for reuse, but I am still at the process debugging stage and storing the used etchant for long periods is not feasible.  The formula I was going to use is the one posted in this groups Files directory.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
