Agfa TS and TU gum

[metromike]

We just found 6 jugs of 5 year old unused Agfa TS and TU gum for plates.
Anyone know how to dispose of this?

From what I remember, gum Arabic, is sap/syrup from a tree.
It's also used in foods, so is eatable.
I'm thinking it can be diluted with water and sent down a sewer drain.
Agfa website should have a MSDS safety sheet on it.

Do you have any local chemical recycling companies?

You can probably sell it or give it away to someone. It doesn't go bad in 5 years as far as I know.
My boss would wet himself if he could get something like that for free.
