Our local Sherman-Williams stores will take up to 5 gallons a day for recycle. No matter the paint brand. I just got rid of 15 gallons taking them to Sherman-Williams.

You can buy waste paint hardener, but I'm now sure how economically feasible that is if you're talking lots and lots of cans. That sounds like a solution looking for a problem. It might speed up drying but I doubt the final product is any different than just leaving the lid off. If you want to speed up drying, line a big cardboard box with plastic and dump it in. The more surface area, the faster it dries.

If you have several cans, donate it to Habitat for Humanity. They will take about anything. If not, let it dry and throw in in the trash. Latex only.

Solidify it with cat litter. pour litter in and stir around. Leave lid off and it will be dry in a few hours.

Fill with cat litter with the top off, when hard throw out in the garbage. That is for Latex paint only. Clear your cards, folks; we have a BINGO!

If you are on a municipal sewer system, why not dump a little at a time down the sanitary drain and flush with plenty of water ?

Local school might be able to use it to paint props for plays or musicals.
