Abstract: A cartridge includes an absorber to retain a liquid, a tank including an opening and an absorber chamber to hold the absorber, a lid member joined to the opening of the tank and including an air communication port communicating with atmosphere, and a partition member arranged between the lid member located inside the absorber chamber. The lid member includes a first protrusion to protrude toward the partition member, and the first protrusion is formed to surround the air communication port. The partition member includes a groove to be connected to the absorber chamber and a second protrusion to face the first protrusion. A communication path communicating with the air communication port is formed between the first protrusion and the second protrusion. In other words, it has the potential to contribute to the achievement of a sustainable society, such as a decarbonized society/circular society.

Abstract: The invention is a method for rendering containers having hazardous residual paint colorant non-hazardous, by washing the hazardous residual paint colorant from the containers to a level where the containers are no longer considered to be hazardous waste, at which point the containers can be safely introduced into standard waste recycling streams. The method also proposes washing the hazardous paint colorant out of the containers and using the wash water containing the colorant to make paint, aggregate, and precast concrete structures.

Abstract: A device for separating infusion capsules includes a base unit and a plunger, the base unit having a face with an aperture for receiving a body part of the capsule, wherein a portion of the face surrounding the aperture has a surface that undulates in a longitudinal direction relative to a central axis through the aperture; the plunger including a projection sized to fit within the aperture. A capsule can be placed, rim side down, on the base unit over the aperture, and the plunger used to urge the capsule down into the aperture. The result is that the capsule inverts, rupturing the foil layer and emptying the coffee or other infusion into the base unit below the aperture. The coffee (etc) and the capsule can then be removed for separate recycling. The undulating surface ensures that the rim section of the capsule is distorted during this process, which assists in separating any layers that have been provided for example by way of sealant.
