Abstract: A system and process for recycling machining waste into a solid/scrap material component and a recyclable machining coolant. The system and process comprise collecting the waste machining waste and mechanically separating the machining waste into a solid/scrap material component and a machining waste liquid component. The machining waste liquid component is decanted to separate oils and solids from the recyclable machining coolant. The machine recyclable machining coolant is then filtered through at least a first filter and preferably a second, finer mesh filter. The recyclable machining coolant is then exposed to UV light to kill bacteria and microorganisms. Lastly, ultrapure water is added to dilute the recyclable machining coolant and form the recycled machining coolant. If desired, a virgin machining coolant can be added to the recycled machining coolant, to replenish any additive(s) stripped during the recycling process, prior to resale of the recycled machining coolant.

Abstract: A dispenser guard for use in a bird feeder including a seed storage and a seed dispenser having a seed reservoir connected from the seed storage for receiving seed from the seed storage and allowing access to the seed. An upper guard plate extends across the seed reservoir and includes a first plurality of upper access openings and a lower guard plate is located between the upper guard plate and the seed reservoir and extends across the seed reservoir and includes a second plurality of lower access openings. The dimensions of the upper access openings and of the lower access openings and the distance between the upper guard plate and the lower guard plate are selected to prevent a squirrel from removing seed from the reservoir.
