In assembling reports to develop this publication, government agencies were able to find and provide single copies of many test reports-copies that were available no where else but in government archives-to use for analysis. This never-before published information is now available in condensed form to the user. The data is easily accessible, meaningful, and quickly understood.

Fifteen chapters cover the following skimmer types:• broom; • brush (chain and drum brush); • disc; • drum; • paddle belt; • stationary rope mop; • suspended rope mop; • ZRV rope mop; • sorbent belt; • fixed submersion plane; • submersion moving plane; • suction; • air conveyors; • weir and induced flow weir; • and advancing weir.
