When etching InP or GaAs substrates, both 2” wafers and small pieces, you should collect the chemicals used in a waste bottl. This does not apply for etching epilayers.

There should be two bottles in the fumehood one for HCl used to etch InP substrates and one for citric acid: H2O2 or H2SO4 (10%):H2O2 used to etch GaAs substrates.
