price of scrap silver EPA Compliance Information price of scrap silver
Maguire & Strickland precious metals refining legally disposes of film and fixer solution to ensure EPA compliance. We service the medical, dental, chiropractic, veterinarian, graphics and printing and industrial engineering markets. We purchase high grade silver flake from the same markets. Maguire & Strickland guarantees that it processes, stores, handles and ships hazardous or potentially hazardous material or waste in a manner consistent with any and all Federal, State and locally mandated laws, regulations and procedures and is in compliance with Resource Conservation and Recovery Act as passed by congress in 1976.

Very Small Quantity Generators- Transportation Regulations

Minnesota Statutes § 116.07 subdivision 2 was amended in the 1989 legislature to provide a partial exemption from hazardous waste regulation for certain hazardous wastes.

Essentially hazardous waste generators who are eligible to qualify for the exclusion are generators of less than 100kg/month (220 lbs. /month) of hazardous waste. This Very Small Quantity Generators category allows VSQG's to transport photographic fixer waste solutions or film to a refiner without a transporter license by MnDOT.

Compliance Silver Check Canisters

Spent fixer contains small amounts of the heavy metal silver in the waste stream. A steel wire ion exchange compliance canister eliminates the heavy metal silver from the waste stream in order for the generator to be in compliance with federal, state and local standards. That is, there is a federal mandate to remove silver from the fixer solutions which is generated during film processing.

The steel wire compliance canister trailing the film processor removes silver particles to less than 5 parts per million to meet EPA standards for hazardous materials.

The EPA wishes to have heavy metals eliminated from waste streams and as silver is a heavy metal, a waste industry has evolved to accomodate the EPA, state and local agencies. Hence, Maguire & Strickland installs compliance canisters for the medical, dental and printing industries, focusing canisters on the medical and dental industries.
