'The tests which the Company has applied show that the' chief source of trouble comes from No. 3 boller house, and. the investigations have now. reached a point justifying the consideration of an experimental washer, -ag mentioned in the memo andum' issued by the Council. difference between the two prohi of No, 3 and No. 4 boller houses may. be put this way: In No, 4 house the Company has been dealing with gases Yiden with a high volume of light Qufly ash and a relatively small Jamount of sulphur, The quality and characteristics of the ash ore helpful the elimination of sulphur, No. 3 boiler house deals with gases that have a relatively small amount of coarse ash or cinders and are heavily Inden with sulphur due to the higher sulphur content in the coal, It is pos sible that the characteristics of the ash may not be helpful in neutralize ing the sulphur and that some other method may be found to be necessary to do this and thus satisfactorily solve this problem. The experimental washer for No, 3 house will be of entirely different proportions and details from those in operation in No.
house, and it will undoubtedly require some modification, atier experiments have been conducted on it, in order to arrive at the final design which can be applied to all boilers in No, 3 house.
