Fellow Histonetters.

In our Organisation, we tend to combine our waste solvents (Ethanol &
Xylene)with the formalin waste into one drum, and then send it away for
disposal. I have been informed that this is a "no, no" and that formalin
should be kept in it's own, as it can form an explosive mixture if combined
with the solvents.
True or false?
