I suggest that you turn the electrolyte in at your nearest battery wholesaler. They deal with similar material all the time as part of their recycling programs. <br><br>Jolliness,<br><br clear="all">Mick Abraham, Proprietor<br>

    Wrenches,<br>
    By chance I found a half-full gallon jug full of lead-acid battery
    electrolyte. It has begun to leak. With no knowledge of its history,
    age, origin, etc. I'm not sure how to dispose of it safely. <br>
    <br>
    I don't think I've ever seen this addressed on this list before. Can
    anyone help with some simple solutions?<br>
    <br>
    Thanks, Allan<br>
