COMPLETE SPECIFICATION (AMENDED).
An Improved Process for Oxygenating, Deodorizing, and Disinfecting
Sewage or other Fermentable or Noxious Matters.
ARTHUR PEACH HOPE Analytical and Pharmaceutical Chemist Mayland,
Wellingborough Norths., do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in
what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascer-
tained in and by the following statement :-
The deodorizing and disinfecting of sewage or other fermentable or noxious
matter by the aid of steam impregnated with and generated from liquids combined
with an antiseptic or antiseptics, or deodorizers or disinfectants.
(1) The sewage or sewerage or closet and other drainage output commonly
known as sewage, or any other fermentable or noxious matter, whether dissolved.
or held in liquids,-should first be conveyed into tanks or a tank suitable for the
purpose.
(2) A pipe or pipes connected with a steam boiler must then be immersed in the
sewage or other fermentable or noxious matter to be treated.
(3) The same pipe or pipes should be made with a tap or taps to turn steam into
sewage or stop same when desired.
(4) One gallon of "Bacillite" should be pumped into boiler or passed into
boiler with each 200 gallons of water ("Bacillite" is composed of cresylic oil, 8 parts,
sulphur part, hydrate of soda 2 parts, carbonate of soda 1 part, resin 2 parts-
boiled for 2 hours).
(5) Or, to each 200 gallons of water in the boiler should be added one gallon of
a deodorizer or a disinfectant that will, being miscible with water, answer a similar
purpose, or purposes as "Bacillite."
(6) When steam from this mixture has been generated it will be found impreg-
nated with a deodorizer or disinfectant or oxydizer, and can then be passed into
sewage.

page_text: (7) The contents of a boiler holding say (e.g.) 200 gallons of water with one gallon
"Bacillite" will be sufficient to deodorize and disinfect at least 4,000 gallons of
sewage. This antiseptic steam should be passed into sewage until latter is dis-
infected & deodorized.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention & in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare, that what I
claim is :-
The introduction of steam impregnated with & generated from liquids com-
bined with an antiseptic or antiseptics, or deodorizer, or deodorizers, or disinfectant,
or disinfectants, into sewage or other fermentable or noxious matter.
(2) Sewage or other fermentable or noxious matter treated as in Claim No.-1
ean be disinfected and deodorized.
(3) Introducing into an ordinary steam boiler, baccillite or any other-disinfectant
miscible with water for the purpose of deodorizing sewage.
