As title states I’m looking to dispose of a bunch of 200mg/ml liquid synthetic nicotine I’ve had stored in Boston round bottles for the last three-four years. It’s an artifact from when I used to vape and I’m tired of it taking up freezer space.
In its current form it is extremely toxic to just about goddamned everything. In its current potency it is even more of a hazard to everything. I’d like to dispose of it, properly. I’ve already called my local landfill and they will not accept it. I dunno where else to put it, or how else to make it inert.
Does anyone have suggestions for how to do so? It’s about 5 liters, btw. I also have about 100-ish bottle of flavorants from when I used to mix my own vape juices. I think those can just be emptied into a wad of paper towels and disposed of conventionally.
After quick look around it seems like its 0.01 % concentration, thats a lot of water. Throwing with litter over time (so it wont wind up in one place) seems better
Yeah I’m awkward enough I don’t think I’d attempt doing that, just because I’m bound to fuck it up somehow.
The 5 liters are broken down into 250ml bottles, so I’ll try at a bottle at first and assuming at absorbs well, I’ll just do that I think. It’s polyethylene glycol based so it’s carrier liquid is pretty thick but even if it take a few days to absorb fully I’ve got somewhere to let it work safely til I can toss it.
Thanks for the tidbit. Points me in the right direction.
It like half a bottle per 100 l bath (assuming further dilution of at least 10x in waste), its nuts with your amounts to waste that much water. Maybe only if you take baths yourself and dump it there afterwards in gray water
There is inbuilt safety margin with dumping into water that your wastewaste will dilute like 100 times at least in waste water system (before having chance to contact environment), so fucks up of even 10 times won’t be bad. But anyway litter is simpler
