To be proportional, it would have to be a tiny fraction of a mililiter of photo solutions in a very large fish tank. On the other hand, imagine how many hundreds of gallons of fertilizer, weed killer and bug killer an average Golf Course dumps directly into the ground in a season.jnanian said:get a fish tank and dump some chemicals in there to see how long the fish survive, probably not too long.

I've been wondering that too. With the tiny amounts of low quality Silver that I would be collecting in my very low volume operation, it certainly wouldn't be worth the effort of trying to reclaim it as metal.Leon said:those who are recommending using wire wool or foil to reclaim teh silver out of fixers ... what do you do once the silver is out? I guess it forms on the wire wool, what do you do with the wire wool?
Flotsam said:I don't tone my prints. Mainly because I am at least aware and concerned about my darkroom effluents but also because I understand that to achieve permenance, the print must be toned to finality which changes it's appearance much more than I like. I hope that I can find a paper to replace Polymax with the same great d-max so that I don't have to rely on toning to boost them.
for those of us not on your side of the pond, what kind of Business to companies like Hauser and Miller do - what kind of companies would want to buy reclaimed silver?Aggie said:the steel wool can be sold to companies like Hauser and Miller, or Rio Grande.
