6 0 t 7n Bushels of SUPERIOR CHARCOAL
6w LtoU 70 are obtained from one cord of wood by the use of
IMtathieu';s E tPa tent Retorts,
And all the Acetic Vapors collected.
These Retorts are now operated in connection with BlastFurnaces; and experience has
demonstrated that an increase of 16 per cent. of blast pressure and 25 per cent. of burdemn is
possible with coal made in these Retorts, over that made in kilns or meilers.
The charcoal produced is clean and dry, and being disc.harged into cooling tanks the breakage is reduced to a minimum. It weighs 21 pounds per bushel.
34 of these retorts are now erected and 128 additional are being constructed.
