Partially spent ammonia borane reaction with water

The procedure for disposal of spent or partially spent AB has been modified so that it does not include the use of water. Instead, the AB is removed from containers and transferred for disposal by rinsing with mineral oil, silicone oil or other similar inert materials. It is then disposed of as a slurry.

= No Ignition
= Explosion
