I'm not so sure now that's actually a good idea. In case of a spill a
violent chemical reaction would take place, probably releasing gasses that
might put the bucket under pressure or heat causing all sorts of trouble.
Also, "pure" HCl seems easier to re-use or neutralize for disposal than
some mixtures you might get.
