How can you safely store corrosive wastes?
Use plastic drums, or plastic-lined steel drums, to safely store corrosive wastes. To prevent drum failure, carefully “match” the right waste with the right container.
Consult a corrosion resistance guide to determine if the container and waste are compatible.
Consider one more thing when selecting a container. You can put wastes into unwashed containers that held incompatible wastes (under 40 CFR 265.177(b)). However, you must make sure that you meet the conditions specified in 265.17(b).
If you reuse a container that previously stored waste or other materials, make sure that the waste/material previously stored is compatible with the waste you intend to put in the container.
