Does anyone have more information about the DisposeRx product? I'm wondering if it actually alters the opioids to a non-retrievable state or if it simply encapsulates the pills, or the dissolved pills, in the gel in a still-active state.

Hi Ed and all,



I'm glad this biomedical firm got caught and people were paying attention.



It reminds me of an enforcement case I worked on where a plating shop

allowed acid plating waste to drain down the driveway into the storm sewer.

The acid etched away the concrete--not to mention the acidification of the

water in the River.  These guys also poured plating waste into the sanitary

sewer--the floor in the bathroom was eaten away and all cobbled.  We did

send them to jail.



Very truly yours,
