SAWMTLL WASTE TO
RE MADE VALUABLE

Seattle. Wash, Oct. 4-Experi-
ments the University of Washington
by Lloyd ID. Davis OF the department.
of industrial chemistry and DR.. w.
ID. Davidson OF the University of
British Columbia, have resulted in
the discovery OF a process OF dis
tilling sawmill waste by means of
which tar, light oil, acetate OF
lime and charcoal are obtained. In
the new process the gas produced
by distillation is carried through a
pipe nine inches in diameter and 90
feet long. In the pipe is an elec.
trically charged wire which causes
projection of the heavy particles Of
tar. The TAR, 40 gallons for each
cord OF wood distilled. is OF medium
consistency and Immediately mar
ketable.
The light oil, obtained in water
condenser, is Immediately mark ct
able for use in ore refining and the
yield is IL gallons to the cord OF
wood. Eighty pounds OF acetate of
lime are obtained from the pyroli-
gneous acid of each cord OF wood
Nine hundred pounds OF charcoal
are the final yield.
