How to Neutralize Bleach?

I'd dilute it with water at about 10:1 and just pour it on the ground.

But, if you insist:

FAQ: How can I neutralize the damaging effects of chlorine bleach ...

_{Slaps forehead, walks away wondering, "why didn't I think of that".}

roflmao and Doh!

However...

...my first thought was that I'd rather not cart a leaky bottle of bleach around if I don't have to.

Or you could tow it outside of the environment ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcU4t6zRAKg&feature=related

do the laundry

Sodium bi-sulfate.

No deal. Try Sodium bisulphite instead.

This is the first time I have ever heard of someone having a problem disposing of such a common chemical!

get some smaller containers and siphon it into them.

Dilute and flush

Is Clorox^® Regular-Bleach flammable?

No, Clorox^® Regular-Bleach is 90% water and is not flammable

That still puts it in the septic system which he doesn't want to do. How about mixing it with plaster of Paris and then disposing of the lump.

Quick! Somebody grab Stinky Pete before he hides again!

Yo Pete! It's BATHTIME AGAIN....

Do the words "Get knotted" mean anything to you? <Cough, splutter>

You could develop some photographic film maybe?

You can use bleach to do something to film but I wouldn't call it developing. More like making trash.

I'm not an engineer but... There is a concept of using another jug to hold said liquid. Just pour into another container and replace cap. Don't use a jug that held ammonia!!!

AND MARK THE JUG!!!

If you are so concerned about the choline odour and want to chemically neutralize,

Dilute as much as possible, add 5to 10gpl urea[ exothermic heat absorber] or glycerin, or keep it inside indirect immersion in water bath. Now you can antichlor the stuff by any one of the following depending on the availability- Sodium hydrosulphite, sodium thio sulphate, sodium bi sulphite, sodium sulphide[all happened to be reducing agents] or Hydrogen peroxide [in calculated quantities only]

Another simple remedy is to dilute the same with water, keep it open outdoor for some days- chlorine is gone in air.

Consume it for white goods washing if possible.

By pure accident (no, really!), I've discovered that putting bleach in a toilet and then *ahem* leaking into it creates this amazing invisible cloud that smells strongly like ammonia. Close your bathroom door, trigger the chemo-generator, and sanitize your bathroom. :-) Open a window too, unless you're out to sanitize your whole house, hahahaha. Cheers! DZ

The O.P is concerned about the damage to digestive micro organism/ worms in the septic tank, which may get dead by chlorine. Otherwise your point is applicable, if you can bear with any foul odour in the absence of septic tank organisms

What did you eat the last couple of days?

Q. How is this "amazing invisible cloud", visible if it was 'invisible' ?

You, Sir, are DEAD ON. I pride myself for my precision in speech, I despise impossible imagery, and I abhor mixed metaphor. (I do rhyme and alliterate, though :P). My SINCERE recognition for your setting me straight. I'll keep an eye out for this from now on. Cheers, with gratitude. DZ P.S. No irony! P.P.S. That being said, that clouding may have been my corneas going opaque and stuff.

Maybe you can help me someday. I usually have a terrible time when Mr. Del Cat puts a posting on CR4. Perhaps you could be the officially designated person to translate Queen's English to Real English.

Thank you,

IF YOU JUST LEAVE IT OPEN TO ATMOSPERE IT WILL GAS OFF IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS LEAVING ALMOST PURE WATER.

Here's hoping the OP will turn off Caps Lock first.

Correction. Not the OP. The one right above you.

In the meantime, turn the bottle so that the leak is at the top.

Give to someone to put in their pool.

Ordinary baking soda does an excellent job at neutralizing Clorox.Add soda till it stops foaming.Do not breathe the fumes.When done, the ph will be around 7 and safe for septic tank.

As for the guy that urinates into the clorox in his toilet, what you smell is actually chlorine gas,generated by the ammonia in urine when combined with the chlorox.Can be fatal if inhaled in a closed room with no ventilation.

Chlorine causes the air sacs in your lungs to exude fluid, causing you to drown in your own body fluids.Was used by the Germans in WWII.

'Nuff said.
