Hello aks,

Consult with the lamp manufacturer for guidelines relating to lamp disposal. As deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen, it is flammable, but deuterium is not radioactive if that is your primary concern.

Take care,

Try http://www.lamprecycle.org/

There are many companies that will destroy/recycle all bulbs.

Hope this helps.
