Sorry to post twice on this issue, but I just recieved an email with an
attachment from Heilyser Tech, who manufactures an oxalic acid vaporizor.
It contains, in English, some of the data mentioned in the last post:

I doubt that the listserver will handle an attachment, so if anyone wishes
to email me privately, I'll send it directly.

Based on the information contained in the document, it looks as if oxalic
acid vaporization is very effective, and leaves no residues above normal
background levels.
