[Nhcoll-l] Waste formalin denaturing

[Andrew Stewart]

Hi Folks

I am looking for a way to cut the considerable costs to the Museum of commercial disposal of waste formalin. From a quick search of the web, it appears that catalytic oxidation with UV seems to be the way to go, but I was wondering if anyone has had any experience of doing this, or has a successful system in operation they'd be prepared to share.

Thanks for your help!

Andrew
