One thought on “Sewer Science

  1. For at least the last 10 years, we have taken our pharmaceutical waste seriously. We put it in a separate bag to be incinerated. I do hope our incinerator has a way to capture the particulate matter to keep it out of the atmosphere…Otherwise, there is not much difference between ‘rock’ and ‘hard place’.
