Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the combustion of coal, and the methods of preventing smoke pollution from its use as fuel. It was written at a time when the inefficiencies of coal combustion were becoming increasingly problematic in the industrialized world. The author's deep dive into the chemical processes of combustion provides insights that are still relevant today. They explain the importance of regulating the supply of air to both the solid and gaseous portions of the coal, and demonstrate that the best way to prevent smoke is to ensure complete combustion. The author's ideas are scientifically sound, and the book includes detailed diagrams and illustrations to help readers understand the processes they describe. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of energy and fuel technology, as well as a useful guide for engineers and inventors who seek to improve the efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of coal combustion systems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
