LESSON 1
After 30 seconds, one-fourth of the hypo remains, and so on, until
eventually the remaining hypo is negligible.
Accordingly, washing time
depends on the degree of agitation and the amount of fresh water coming into
contact with emulsion (fig 1-9). Where water shortages exist, the reduced
wash time will save large amounts of water.
