[pianotech] CA disposal?

[Marc Lanthier (Piano Lanco)]

Fully cured CA is inert and can be disposed of in landfill. Same as cured
epoxies, polyurethanes and aliphatic and PVA glues.
 
Thanks

Joel,
 
Good idea on the wax paper.  Now as far as disposal, I've never been so
careless or sloppy to actually have it drip through.  Well, maybe once - but
it wasn't my fault. <G>
 
I wouldn't think that a fully cured CA, epoxy, wood glue, etc. would be
considered hazardous material and require special disposal.  That said, I've
no doubt that CA and a zillion other things we are allowed to place in
landfills shouldn't be there.  Whatcha gonna do??

William, 

I recommend putting wax paper down first, then multi-layers of newspapers to

catch the drops. If it does soak through the papers the wax paper will stop
the 
liquid. 

Now, disposing of the whole mess is a question . Any of this combination a 
potential problem in the landfill? The amount is not large, but it is a
question
for me as to the potency of what is involved. I personally don't have any
severe
reaction except a smarting nose and watery eyes, but what about the part
that goes into the trash?
