Excerpt from Water-Gas Operating Methods With Central District Bituminous Coals as Generator Fuel: A Summary of Experiments on a Commercial Scale, a Preliminary Report The superintendent who contemplates the use of bituminous coal for water-gas generator fuel is confronted by the following problems, some of which apply more strongly in certain cases than in others the education of gas makers in the use of coal fuel and the overcoming of their prejudices against it; the selection of suitable coal; the con trol of arching and caking in the generator; the maintenance OT production capacity with coal fuel; the prevention of an excessive amount Of smoke during operation; the prevention of sticking of valves, due to tar deposits; and the control Of clinker formation. Some Of the problems enumerated could, perhaps, be solved by the same methods in one plant as in another, but others require indi vidual treatment on account of certain peculiarities of existing condi tions in particular plants. It is Obvious that the methods developed in one particular plant under one set Of conditions cannot apply to all. It is the purpose Of this paper to discuss the principles governing Operation briefly, to tell the reasons why certain Operating methods were adopted, and what the results were in the case descri-bed.
