2.8 Disposal of sonication fluid
Dispose of the sonication fluid in accordance with the specifications of the manufacturer
of the ultrasound agent used. The recommended ultrasound agents in the TICKOPUR
product line by DR. H. STAMM GmbH are biodegradable in accordance with the provisions
of Regulation (EC) No. 648/2004 (Detergents Regulation). If necessary, the sonication fluid
must be neutralised before disposal.
Depending on the type of contamination involved, water-polluting substances like oils
or heavy metal compounds may be introduced to the sonication liquid during cleaning.
If the threshold values for these substances are exceeded, the sonication liquid must be
processed or disposed of as special waste.
Observe local waste water regulations.
