摘要:
An apparatus for use in the separation of a floating contaminant from a body of liquid has a rectangular planar sheet with upright wall members on each of two opposed edges and has on one of its other edges an inlet manifold. The inlet manifold has a slot aperture through which is directed a high velocity film of liquid over the sheet. The sheet has at the edge remote from the manifold a collecting device. The sheet is positioned in the liquid so that the film of liquid entrains the floating contaminants and carries them to the collecting device.
