Put All Solvent Waste in the Designated Waste Bin

Put all solvent soaked waste in designated waste bins.

The solvent waste bins are exhausted to the cleanroom exhaust system so that vapors from solvents on the waste are removed from the cleanroom before a user can be exposed to the vapors. Throwing away solvent waste in the regular trash bins puts other users at risk. Regular trash bins should be limited to simple trash such as papers and waste gloves.
