Railroad Deal Could Create New Coal Outlet for West Virginia

Wall Street observers discuss a possible merger between Pere Marquette and Nickel Plate that would link Chicago Detroit and Buffalo. A combined system would give West Virginia coal access to eastern and central markets, with potential ownership shifts involving Henry Ford and the Van Sweringen interests.

Oil burns costly in boilers versus bituminous coal

Perry Barker of Barker Engineering, Boston, argues bituminous coal outperforms oil in boiler efficiency. He cites 63% for ordinary hand-fired boilers, 74% for stokers with bituminous coal, and up to 82% with pulverized coal. One ton of high-grade coal at 63% equals 424 barrels of oil in energy terms, while at 70% it equals 4.96 barrels of oil. heating values and equipment costs are weighed against oil. Tests on pulverized coal show overall plant efficiency around 80% to 83% with specific furnace and burner setups. The study notes automatic oil or coal burning equipment costs per horsepower and emphasizes burner design and furnace conditions as critical to efficiency.
