   No one would take our empty 200L steel drums.  The demand for them   
   these days is minimal.  The Greenies authorities want every single   
   drum rinsed out thrice, then crushed to a pancake for recycle at the   
   steel works.   It all costs money, lots.   
      
   We were desperate and were considering two options:   
      
   1/ Electrolytic oxidation.   
   2/ A pure-oxygen reactor to burn them.   
      
   Luckily a rag-and-bone man was interested and took them all away for   
   free.
