I have 2 small slow cookers that have been used for chemicals in jewellery making (pickle). The acid has been neutralised with baking soda however it is not safe to put in general waste due to the copper oxides being extremely toxic to plant/animal/marine life. I am hoping someone can collect and store until the next Detox Your Hone event (free chemical disposal) or can take it with their other chemical waste disposal.
