Exhausted fixer and to some extent rinse water contain silver thiosulfate complex ions. They are far less toxic than free silver ion, and they become silver sulfide sludge in the sewer pipes or treatment plant. However, the maximum silver concentration in discharge is very often tightly regulated. Silver is also a somewhat precious resource. Therefore, in most large scale processing establishments, exhausted fixer is collected for silver recovery and disposal. Many photographic chemicals use

Carl Plattner was almost the first person to discover cesium in 1846. He was studying the mineral pollucite but ran out of materials before reaching the element. Cesium was first discovered by German chemists Robert Wilhelm Bunsen and Gustav Robert Kirchhoff in 1860. While they were studying the components of Durkheim water using flame spectroscopy, the chemists noticed an emission that they had never seen before. This element, soon to be named cesium, was the first element to be found using spectroscopy
