Hi Linda,
   I have just finished researching this subject.  There are many products on
the market for neutralizing formalin, which is what we plan to do. You must
discuss this with your city utilities. they will want to check the MSDS sheets
of the products. In the end they may tell you the products need to have a
different ph.  In that case, talk to the technical representative for the
product you are interesed in and he can give you a protocol for ph the end
product. Then you will just need to document quantities, ph and dates disposed.
I really didn't like the idea of distilling or storing for pickup and hauling.
