Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smoke Abatement and City Smoke Ordinances Almost from the inception of the fuel-testing work begun by the Government in 1904 the determination of ways and means for smoke lessly burning fuels from different sections Of the United States has been deemed of great importance by the officials in charge of the work. The results of some Of the investigations along this line have been published as bulletins of the United States Geological Survey and of the Bureau Of Mines. The large demand for these bulletins has indicated that the subject is Of much interest to the public. Since the fuel-testing investigations were begun in 1904, and in some measure because of them, a marked improvement has been made in the smokeless burning of many fuels, and particularly in the burn ing of bituminous coal. This advance has resulted partly from a desire to improve general power-plant economy, but more largely from a public demand for less smoke. Unfortunately, many of those who have been working on the problem of smoke prevention, or smoke abatement, have not had a thorough understanding Of the basic prin ciples involved, and consequently much effort has been misdirected. Even today smoke prevention means to a large number of persons the application of some special device, some smoke consumer, which, if placed in the stack or in the smoke passages, will in some way consume the smoke.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Smoke Abatement and City Smoke Ordinances The Bureau of Mines is endeavoring to ascertain how mineral fuels in which the Government has a direct interest, by ownership or use, can be utilized with highest efficiency. For this reason the bureau has been, and is, carrying on investigations to ascertain the conditions of furnace construction and management that are necessary to insure the smokeless combustion of the different coals that are found in public lands or are purchased for Government ships and power plants. Another reason for the bureau undertaking these investigations is the need of better furnace management and a more careful selection of fuel at many Government plants. There are Federal buildings in hundreds of cities. The coals available at many of these cities differ greatly in quality, and the furnaces in some of the Federal buildings were not designed for efficient utilization of the cheap-est available coal. Hence, some of the boiler plants smoke badly unless fed with low-volatile coal and have caused repeated com-plaints not only from neighboring property owners who have suffered damage, but from persons endeavoring to create a civic pride in clear air. In the course of its fuel investigations the bureau has noted the conditions governing fuel consumption in different cities and has studied the attempts made by these cities to abate smoke through the passage of ordinances imposing penalties on smoky stacks. Some results of that study are presented in this report. The most important conclusion reached is that smoke abatement by ordinance can not hope to succeed unless supported by public sentiment and that a smoke ordinance should look to future prevention rather than to immediate prohibition. In other words, strict control of furnace construction offers much greater hope for smoke abatement than desultory imposition of severe penalties on the escape of "dense" or "black" smoke.
