{{speculative}}
When [[further improvement at technology level III|advanced atomically perecise products]] start to get used [[diamondoid]] scrap will start to accumulate.
Through sensible system design with direct [[recycling]] of [[microcomponents]] the rate of scrap production could be held low but it will undoubtedly accumulate. 

To keep the waste from the environment it should be thermally disintegrated.
See: "[[diamondoid waste incineration]]"

Gasses might be directly processable with advanced forms of [[tooltip chemistry]].
Pure hydrocarbon [[diamondoid]] waste won't produce solid ashes.
For ashes from silicon or metals liquid phase [[bulk chemistry]] might be needed (possibly as small as desktop scale).

Lessons will be takeable from the improvement of conventional mining and post processing with AP technology. See: "improved [[mining]]".
