Why dump it at all? Cutting fluid is normally filtered and reused. I’m not sure what its longevity is but I worked as a CNC machine operator for a while and don’t recall ever outright disposing of fluid. It did have to be topped up every couple of days as some of it was lost due to evaporation and misting. This might have been some other crap they put in the used HOCUT drums.
