NEW SMOKE CONSUMER.
A smoke consumer and fuel consumer, said to be the result oi twenty years' triais, has been successfully tested at Sheffield. Coai was fed into the furnace of a boiier generating- steam for running the works, with the usual result —the emission of black smoke from the chimney; then the consumer was put: into action, and in place of the black smoke there was only a slight Iran: of the products of combustion. The change is effected by an arrangement of a series of devices so placed in' the flues as to intercept the smoke, and cause it to be ignited by the flames. Two air circulators are so placed as to allow the desired quantity of external air to be circulated among these devices, causing the.smoke to be properly ignited and consumed around the boiler flues before entering the chimney.
