For those of you who use formalin during QT, how do you dispose of it? It's my understanding that this is a hazardous substance. When I worked in a lab, there were procedures for getting rid of this stuff, how do you do it at home?
 
Here's a quick link.

Modern fish culture facilities that use formalin should have some sort of retention pond to send the solution so it can break down over several days.
