Gentlemen: -
Your Committee, appointed TO inves-
tigate an alleged smoke nuisance at the
Detroit Brass and Malleable Plant, 10
Gated at Elm and Seventh Streets beg
To report as follows:
We have personally investigated this
matter and find as follows
III 4 modern method Ot dust
cltchers entirely eliminate dust from
tie misunderstanding operation.
90 Furnaces using pulverized coal
have been installed to replace the old
type hand-fired furnaces, getting com
pIete combustion and eliminating
smoke. SCOT and fly-aSh:
1t il apparent from the above that
the Company has made Il concerted eff
fort, at great expense, TO eliminate
causes for complaint.
We find. however. that OH account
of the excessive heat required (22O0
degrees r. minimum the brick lining
of the furnace must be replaced about
every TWO weeks. This causes a com
lietc shutdown of the furnace for sew
eral days. In order To have molten me-
tai for the molds by 1000 A NJ, it is
necessary to START the furnaces about
> 100 \. VI. When this is done OH days
that the furnaces have been used the
day previous enough heat L. still re-
tanned in said furnaces 10 give COM
plcte combustion when they are light
ed
When n furnace has been repaired
Or when furnace has been idle sew
eial days, and had cooled incomplete
ccmbust on IL obtained for short per
iod until its temperature is high
CROUCH To assist i'm securing complete
combustion.
Ii j. during this short period that
tLc difficulty arises.
Since the plant is now operating on
u J-day per week basis the furnaces
are idle from Friday night until Mon
day morning.
