    What I would suggest is the following. While wearing proper
    protective equipment (Face shield, Rubber apron, and long gloves
    etc.) Put the jar in a large pail and take a small chisel or a punch
    and hammer and punch a hole trough the rusted cover. If the cover is
    truly Once that is done you can decant the acid into another
    container and dispose of has you have in the past. Don't forget once
    you have drained the acid from the old container to rinse it toughly
    to remove any traces of acid before disposing of it.
