1. A method for safely disposing medicines, the method comprising:
providing the medicines;
converting the medicines into a partially solid disposable mass capable of being incinerated, wherein converting the medicines into the partially solid disposable mass comprises:
treating the medicines with a bittering agent and a coloring agent to denature the medicines;
treating the denatured medicines with an aqueous agent to form an aqueous mass; and
treating the aqueous mass with a thickening agent to form the partially solid disposable mass; and
incinerating the partially solid disposable mass, thereby safely disposing the medicines.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the bittering agent comprises denatonium benzoate.
3. The method of claim 1, wherein the coloring agent comprises a red dye.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the thickening agent comprises sodium polyacrylate.
5. The method of claim 1, wherein the aqueous agent comprises water.
6. The method of claim 1, wherein the aqueous agent comprises carbonated water.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A fuel pump module for a by-pass fuel system, comprising:
a module reservoir;
a fuel pump disposed in said module reservoir;
a strainer fluidically communicating with said fuel pump upstream of said fuel pump;
a standpipe;
an internal channel formed in said strainer fluidically communicating with said stand pipe and said fuel pump; and
by-pass fuel plumbing connected downstream of said fuel pump to said standpipe;
wherein fuel is flowingly pumped in response to pumping by said fuel pump, wherein the fuel is strained by said strainer upstream of said fuel pump, wherein said by-pass fuel plumbing delivers by-pass fuel directly to said fuel pump through said internal channel in upstream relation to said fuel pump and in downstream relation to said strainer, and wherein upstream and downstream are defined by the flow of the fuel.
2. A by-pass fuel system, comprising:
a module reservoir;
a fuel pump disposed in said module reservoir;
a standpipe;
a strainer fitting fluidically communicating with said stand pipe and said fuel pump;
a strainer intersected by said strainer fitting, said strainer fluidically communicating with said strainer fitting upstream of said fuel pump; and
by-pass fuel plumbing connected downstream of said fuel pump to said stand pipe;
wherein fuel is flowingly pumped in response to pumping by said fuel pump, wherein the fuel is strained by said strainer upstream of said fuel pump, wherein said by-pass fuel plumbing delivers by-pass fuel directly to said fuel pump through said strainer fitting in upstream relation to said fuel pump and in downstream relation to said strainer, and wherein downstream and upstream are defined by the flow of the fuel.
