very much. This mill is currently
constructing a blow-pipe system to
convey iis sawdust to the Consum

other wood waste now, Hatchard

PLANT
Hatchard indicated that a large
part of the fallout noticed in the
immediate area of the heating
plant has been coming from that
plant.
The unburned material that is
discharged from a steam heating
plant burning bog fuel can be
stopped by the use of cinder col

The installation of this equipment
may hinge on the economic prob

ard did not say what the cost of
such machinery might be for a
plant the size of the Consumers
plant.
