Drums/Containers

[sub82]

We currently buy food grade hydrogen peroxide and glycerin in 25L drums and 250L drums. We have a few empty ones which will be scrapped. Would anyone be able to make use of them?

Good point! I'll get some on Monday.

Those containing Glycerin no probs, ex hydogen peroxide are not suitable for brewing as it migrates into the HDPE walls and will migrate right back out again, but I know you knew that already

What strength is the H2O2? 10/20/30 or even better HTP

Good man John! Wasn't aware of that - could a couple of kettles of boiling water or caustic solution remove the peroxide?

Will - it's 35%, not sure you can get a higher % that this in food grade? We were looking at 50% at one stage but it was only cosmetics grade. Definitely wouldn't trust ourselves with HTP!

It probably would do but frankly its really is not worth the risk as you have a liability issue here as well best not to offer H202 drums.
Just offer the Glycerin drums.

Why clean up computers that have UV degradation, I thought as with all antiques they are more valuable uncleaned. JFI the H202 if used correctly will not do any damage to the ABS or HIPS casing but will corrode the rubber feet of the console.
Question is would you eat it or put it in your tea

Just some photos of the 250L drums - I've attempted giving an idea of scale using a 46cm ruler!
