Ammonia dissolves it just like the silver chloride dispersion from salt, but I did a quick search and couldn't find any equations. Even if it gave silver chlorite, the amount is so tiny there is no danger of any harm. For example, the amount of silver in 50 millilitres of 16uS cs is only 0.8 milligram. That is not enough to do anything. Also, it has to be dry before becoming sensitive. So you can just pour it down the drain where it will be diluted to insignificant levels.
