An apparatus for sun bathing, which includes an inflatable floor portion substantially rectangular in nature for supporting the length of a user lying on one's back or stomach; a continuous inflatable side wall portion rising the height above the floor portion and attach integral thereto, the side portion having a head rest portion, likewise inflatable for allowing the user to rest his head on that portion of the head rest portion while placement upon the position within the apparatus. For purposes of use, the apparatus is more particularly suitable for using on a hard surface, and to be filled with a predetermined quantity of fluid such as water in order to maintain the user cool during use. The apparatus may also be constructed of transparent plastic for allowing sun's rays through the wall of the apparatus yet have a reflective surface floor portion so that the sun's rays may be directed to other parts of a person's body which would not normally be exposed to the sun while laying in position within the apparatus.

Tanning pool

Elevated temperature process for deoiling spent crystalline clay from the refining of glyceride esters ('oils') wherein a primary dispersion of such spent clay and aqueous alkali are mixed under pH conditions effective for removing a substantial amount of oily phase from such clay in the form of glyceride esters, thus-treated clay is separated and redispersed with additional aqueous alkali under pH conditions effective for saponifying at least a substantial fraction of the remaining glyceride esters present, then the treated clay is separated from the redispersion.

Process for cleansing spent clay from the refining of glyceride esters

Process for washing fatty acids from spent clay, such as spent bleaching clay, with aqueous alkali at elevated temperature is improved by establishing and maintaining the mixture of aqueous phase and fatty acid at a pH between about 5 and about 6.5.
