Disposal Guidelines for Discontinued
KODAK Photographic Processing Products
For more information on septic or sewer systems, refer to
Below are some general guidelines to follow for disposing of
Environmental Guidelines for Amateur Photographers,
discontinued KODAK Photographic Processing Products.
KODAK Publication No. J-300. This is available on our
These guidelines replace the disposal recommendations that

were found on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) since the
product is discontinued and the information on the MSDS may
not be up-to-date.
The first thing you need to consider is if you are on a septic
tank system or a sewer system.
鈥? Kodak does not recommend the use of septic systems for
disposal of photographic processing solutions because they
do not have the ability to properly treat the waste. Other
disposal options are available for septic system users,
including household waste collection facilities, discharge to a
nearby municipal treatment plant, or a licensed hazardous
waste hauler.
鈥? If you are on a sewer system, the best and most appropriate
way to dispose of your photographic processing solutions is
through the sewer system. Most photographic processing
solutions are biodegradable and are effectively treated when
discharged to Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW).
The information contained herein is furnished without warranty of any kind. Users should consider these data only as a supplement
to other information gathered by them and must make independent determinations of suitability and completeness of information
from all sources to assure proper use and disposal of these materials and the safety and health of employees and customers and the
protection of the environment.
