Bleach Solution — Photographic
Photographic Bleach Solutions convert metallic silver on film back to a silver halide through an oxidation reaction. An iron solution is commonly used to accomplish this. Used C-41 RA bleach may contain up to three parts per million (ppm) silver. Because of these high silver levels, used bleach solutions should be disposed of as hazardous waste.
