The fire dept took ours out to an old cemetery and blew it up.  Permanent neutralization.

Hi fellow histonetters,
 
Does anyone know a way of neutralizing picric acid crystals? I know adding water will make it no longer a explosion hazard...but our lab safety officer seems to think
that there is a way of actually neutralizing.
 
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
 
Valerie
