Since x-ray tubes require a more purified and resource heavy level of purity, they will be watched. They're also owned by Health Services which is a pretty by the rules vocation.
Glass, on the other hand, is a very common resource. They would let an Artisan run off with a used glass shell. 2/2

The specific elements to make x-ray tubes? No.
Metals in general are regulated to a degree. Some more than others, tungsten would definitely be on the list of more regulated. Purity would matter. They're not so uptight that they're keeping track of every inch of wire. 1/2

It's possible there's a slight chemical difference between the two that I haven't dug up yet. But, ammonium carbonate can be reused. It weakens with each reuse, but that can possibly be treated as well.
They don't consider anything waste they don't have to.

It's extracted by washing the crushed minerals in an acid that purifies it. There's a few steps of this. There have been experiments with ammonium carbonate. Which you can use in baking. Of course, you wouldn't want to bake with run off from Tungsten processing.

A little late, decided to do a little more research.
Tungsten x-ray tube parts. Though admittedly I am still on the tungsten itself, which is an intermediate
It's an element found in two different minerals. There's no pure version in nature.

Afton also tells the trio that if they had dealt with the situation properly the first time, xe wouldn't have had to deal with so much shit in book three and xe isn't about to have things drag on and end up with more drama in a potential book 5 and 6.

Daniyyel is hiding in a locked room of his own, worried that he's next, and also thinks it's Aegon. He tries to convince Afton to join him, but Xe refuses.

They might as well find out who did it.

Aegon - the charasmatic inventor/brains
Natsuki - The justice, who is flabbergasted this hasn't already been dealt with
Daniyyel - the third part of the trio who doesn't want to be there

I am glad they stopped this execution.
The death penalty needs to be abolished. It's killed entirely too many innocent people. It's also given to POC and people with mental challenges far more often.

Scientists Discover Way To Reverse Chemical Process Linked With Alzheimerβs Disease
By watching Alzheimerβs-related protein clumping unfold second by second, researchers have uncovered new clues about the role of metal ions.
This amazing scientific advance may one day lead to either more effective treatments or dare I say perhaps a cure.
This is why it is vitally important to fund basic scientific research.

2nd - Cherubs - Similar to Seraph, but significantly less ability. The Creator wanted them to be less moody and accidentally made them all tricksters, in a way.

Seven Levels of Creation has, well, six levels of non-animal beings. π
They're differentiated by when they were created, each creation is fairly different from the previous.
1st - Seraph, basically lesser gods, but with limits in ability and rules given by the Creator.

They would deposit them deep in the ground. They would have had some tech for setting up a new home. They could put together something to dig deep into the Earth. If you go low enough, it really minimizes any environmental damage. But you have to go far.

A don't have all the details, but in theory they would process tungsten and process it into the parts needed for an x-ray tube with as few chemicals as possible. I don't know if they could go completely chemical free.
They have an option for any byproduct they can't avoid. 1/2

Anytime I get the itch to buy a game I find something I already own that's similar and play. Sometimes it works. I dive head first and forget everything if the new game is good and I can't always make that kind of time commitment.
