Zusammenfassung:PCT No. PCT/GB95/01187 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 15, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 15, 1996 PCT Filed May 24, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/32154 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 30, 1995An 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.
