Formalex® “GREEN” a liquid formalin neutralizer which utilizes an organo-nitrogen based chemistry to effectively neutralize formalin waste for sink disposal. There is NO sludgy residue, NO pH adjustment required, contains NO phosphates, and is non-vapor forming. 32 ounces of Formalex® “GREEN” will neutralize one gallon of 10% formalin or one gallon of 4% glutaraldehyde. Formalex® “GREEN” will neutralize formalin waste in as little as 4 hours however we recommend 8-12 hours to ensure lowest formalin residual.

Neutralization Procedure

1. Collect acceptable concentrations of aldehyde waste in designated well labeled Formalex® Green Waste Collection Container, 1 Gallon or 2.5 Gallon (51526-100E, 51526-250E).
Use of Funnel with Tissue Screen (FUN-01) is recommended to avoid extraneous tissue debris accumulating in aldehyde waste solutions.
2. Add 32 fluid ounces of Formalex ® “GREEN” to each gallon (128 fluid ounces) of aldehyde waste. Or add 1 liter of Formalex ® “GREEN” to 4 liters of aldehyde waste.
Use a 32 Ounce Graduated Dispenser for convenient measuring.
3. Securely tighten lid on collection container; agitate container to thoroughly mix solutions.
a. Do not add additional solution to collection container once neutralization process has started.
4. Allow mixed solution to stand for a minimum of 4 hours.
5. Prior to re-opening, re-agitate container to thoroughly re-mix solution to decrease exposure to potential headspace vapor.
6. Test treated solution with Formaldehyde Test Kit Strips to determine completion of neutralization reaction.
a. Reaction is complete with a pH reading at or above 5.5.
7. Pour neutralized non-hazardous aldehyde waste product into sanitary sewer.
8. Rinse collection container and clean with cold tap water before reuse.
