The various acids used for stripping (metals) will contain those target materials once the process begins. The actual stripping process will release gasses unique to the reaction. Your end solution will likely be a hazardous waste (characteristic or listed).

If you have not yet started your process, contact a consultant or hazardous waste disposal company.

If you have started your process, contact a consultant or hazardous waste disposal company, particularly if you do not have someone knowledgable of the regulatory requirements for this process.
