Dear Radsafers:
I've come across some Eduquip Inc. Radioactive Material Sets.  I guess they were

used in an educational setting to test which of the materials caused exposure on

a photographic plate.  This was then verifed by the students using a Geiger 
counter on the materials.  The materials that are radioactive include: Uranium 
Sulfate, Uranium Nitrate, and Thorium Nitrate.  Does anyone out in Radsafe land 
have any experience with disposal of these kits?  

Thanks in advance
