Abstract: A system for the reduction and separation of highly emulsified and/or immiscible components mixed in a fluid, particularly useful for treating waste water contaminated with oils and oily emulsions, as from depleted oil wells, vehicle washing stations, and meat rendering plants. The system is operative for reducing the amount of organic and inorganic contaminants, and is particularly suitable for reducing the amount of oil, with oil-consuming microorganisms, and separating oil that is not consumed within the system from the water so that the oil may be recycled and the water discharged into wetlands or sanitary sewers without further treatment. The system comprises a multi-stage, recirculating series of treatment tanks. In a first stage, the fluid is recirculated through a treatment loop where the fluid is aerated and then passed through a coalescer.

Abstract: A game including a game board with plural playing tracks each having multiple contiguous rows of spaces to which multiple game pieces can be moved by each of several players in response to the rolling of dice, the pieces bearing number indicia and being movable toward and ultimately into scoring positions whereat their numbers are added together until one player achieves a winning predetermined aggregate score.
