Disposal tanks
For disposal of chemicals and wash water the regulations of the local
authorities regarding the pertaining Sewage Act must be observed!
If it is allowed to drain the exhausted solutions into the sewer, then the drain
pipe must be a polyethylene pipe up to the main pipe (vertical drain pipe).
The installation of the disposal lines to the disposal tanks must be carried out
professionally by authorized technicians.
In Germany this must be done in compliance with §19 WHG and DIN 1988 /
EN 1717:2001. In other countries the corresponding national regulations
must be considered.
It must be guaranteed that developer or fixer solution never gets into the wash
water, not even in case of overflow due to clogged lines, if the wash water is
drained into the public sewage system. Install the respective hoses and
protection facilities.
In Germany the pertaining regulations are the general minimum requirements
for the disposal of waste water in waters, dated Jan. 31, 1994, Appendix 53 –
Photographic Processes (silver halide photography). In other countries the
respective country-specific regulations and laws must be observed.
