Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a composition and method for treating stains and odors using an oxidizing agent and Bacillus spores. The composition preferably comprises a two part formula, a first part comprising the oxidizing agent and water and optionally an ionic surfactant and fragrance, and a second part comprising a liquid Bacillus spores composition or a dry Bacillus spores powder composition. The preferred Bacillus can include B. licheniformis, B. subtilis, B. pumilus, and B. megaterium spores. The preferred oxidizer is hydrogen peroxide. The parts of the treatment composition are mixed together in-situ at the site of treatment to maintain the viability of the Bacillus spores. The preferred composition and method allow for the combined treatment of stains and odors with an oxidizer and Bacillus spores.

Abstract: A system, composition and method of treating a body of water with an active in a tablet form or contained in a water soluble container to improve overall water quality and ensure adequate dispersion of the active. The composition preferably comprises active(s) and an effervescent couple in solid form. The method preferably comprises dispensing a treatment composition by dropping or throwing the pellets or water soluble containers into the water. The water soluble containers preferably are bag-within-a-bag containers, with an inner bag and outer bag each having the treatment composition and air. Upon contact with the water, the effervescent couple will react to form carbon dioxide, which aids in dispersing the active and any optional ingredients in the treatment composition throughout the water.

Abstract: A chemical meting system to dispense a known or pre-determined amount of cleaning or treating fluid without requiring any moving mechanical parts or power source, for use in fluid tanks having a volume of liquid periodically varying between a high and low level. The system utilizes the pressure changes created by the varying volume of liquid in the tank to push air from a first chamber into a second chamber containing the cleaning or treating fluid to be dispensed. The volume of air displaces a volume of the fluid to be dispensed. Once the pressure in the first chamber is equalized, the dispensing stops until the next cycle when the volume of liquid in the tank changes.
