At present, treatment and disposal are 'rHE PROCESS the most common ways of handling these-wastes. Filtering is one treatment Flexographie uik waste usually contains method. The filter, often composed of from l to 15 percent solids, and has a pH diatomaceous earth (DE), filters out ink between 8.5 and U.S. Acetic acid is solids from the waste 'Phis creates a added to lower the pH to below 5.0.
