The dirty water leaves the apparatus by a waterseal at the bottom. The Theisen and Schiele systems of final wet cleaning have foryears given very satisfactory results, but are now being graduallysuperseded by systems requiring less capital expenditure and lessoperating expense. Most of these systems can be used for primarycleaning as well as for final cleaning, by installing in two most important of the wet cleaning systems which perform asefficient cleaning with the consump
