Thanks. Bleach is a good idea. I may give that a try.
Yeah. They are mostly images of politicians and officials from the archives of
a freelance news photographer who worked in DC in the late 1800’s / early
1900’s. I didn’t think anyone would be interested in them.
:-)
Actually, they’re mostly water damaged x-rays that are fused together in blocks
of gunk.
Thanks again for the suggestion.

Well, if you really want to do this try bleach. It will usually remove the
emulsion immediately. Don't know where to go from there.
Are these the rare historical photos of the last century?

I have a substantial amount of processed B&W negatives that will eventually
be disposed. I would like to remove the emulsion in batches and recover the
siver before I get rid of the base. Does anyone have any suggestions on
emulsion removal in bulk from film?
Thank you... Bill
