OK, I will look at the links. But is there any possible way to develop films such as Fomopan R100 and ADOX Scala without using toxic chemicals?
What's your definition of "toxic"?
Toxic/caustic chemicals, such as the type of bleach used.

Basically no, because the bleach has to be acidic and a potent oxidizer. Apart from the now banned dichromate (at least in the EU), permanganate is not so toxic (unless you swallow it of course), maybe it stains a lot (but metabisulphite will remove any stains of it). There's also another bleach bath, it's based on cerium but it's way too expensive and it's experimental, done by an old Fuji research paper.
