lAlA(1 T[-
Coal May Be Utilized BY a
New Method in
England.

WASHINGTON, u. g., Oct. I'll
A method of successfully utilizing
coal dust and waste coal for fuel has
been Invented in England, according
to an article in the Daily Consular
and Trade Reports by Consul Walter
G. Hamm, at HUI, England. Mr..
Hamm says:
The success of a public exhibition
given shows, 1t is claimed, that much
coal which has heretofore been re-
iected as worthless can be used, and
that greater efficiency can be oh
tanned from this waste coal by the
new method than from the best coal
BY the old method, The system en-
ploys the known principle that al
most perfect combustion can be OBJ
tanned by mixing air in proper
quantities with pulverized coal be-
fore the latter is introduced into a
furnace. This insures better com
bustion with less air than usual,
and with consequent increase in
boiler efficiency by reducing the
amount of heat carried away by es-
Gaping gases.
Coal dust costing S1.25 ton, :
continues Mr., IHamm, which could
not be utilized in any other way, was
burned under the boiler and gave
equal efficiency as compared with
coal costing $3.50 a ton and used
with the old style of boiler"
Should this system be perfected
and brought into general use it
would mean millions OF dollars for
West Virginia every year. If the
waste, slack coal and coal dust
could be utilized in that state, prob
ably the value of the coal output
would double, for there is much
waste through the handling and
mining of coal. The coal dust in
mines must DC handled with Great
care in order to prevent explosions
If this dust could only be turned to
actual account and sold for fuel in
stead of remaining in the mines 20
be menace to the men employed
in them, it would be ,ot only re-
move one of the causes of danger to
but would enhance the value
of the output of the mines as we'll.
The report of Consul Ham is per-
haps the first intfmation in this
country that coal dust can be
utilized as fuel, but if the system
can he introduced into West vir-
ainia It viii be of inestimable value
to the mine owners of the state.
