Most bead release is a combo of kaolin/graphite/preservatives. No harm in throwing it out, just don't breathe the dust. Or, you could do like the super thrifty do and recycle it. Wait for the water to mostly evaporate, swish around the break up large particles, dip fresh mandrel and go a second time. Not that I've ever done this, but I've read of it being done.
