Excerpt from The London Journal of Arts and Sciences, and Repertory of Patent Inventions, 1840, Vol. 15: Conjoined Series In the event of the solution in the vessel p, percolating through the diaphragm into the compartment j, it will be necessary to afford the means for its discharge in a lateral direction, otherwise the gases could not be conveniently forced through the menstruum. For this purpose I apply a pipe y, the lower end of which communicates with the compartment j, under the false bottom, and the upper end opens into the vessel near its top. When the elastic force of the gases, in the vessel u, are beginning to act through the pipe 0, the stop cock in the pipe y, must be opened, which will allow the liquor in the compartment j, to be forced up the pipe y, by the pressure of the gases; and when it has been thus discharged from the compartment, the stop cock must be closed, and the gases will then pass up through the menstruum, as before described.
