Processing and the septic systemgreenspun.com : LUSENET : B&W Photo - Film & Processing : One Thread |
I have resently moved and would like to setup my darkroom. However, I have well water and a septic system. With the silver from the fixing solution I am concerned with poisoning my septic. What did they do in the past when everyone was on their own septic sysstem? Any tips would be appreciated.Thanks in advance.

I believe there was a fairly extensive thread on this point over on photo.net within the last 6 months. (I think the consensus was that it's not likely to be a problem if you're just using ordinary B&W chemistry.) Try a search there for "septic" and see if you don't turn up something.
