December 13, 1918. THE COLLIERY GUARDIAN. [supplement PAGE XVII.] 1275 COAL SAVING BY SCIENTIFIC METHODS IN gj THE BO i LED HOUSE gj “Our Business.” The most promising field for coal economy to-day is the boiler-house —the net working efficiency of the average colliery boiler-plant being only about 50/. We are a firm of Technical Chemists and Engineers who specialise in modern methods of steam generation. Our method is first to undertake a complete scientific investigation of the working of the boiler-plant, and then to design and carry out a scheme of reorganisation on modern lines. We have had ten years con- tinuous experience of this specialised business. We can save 20-25^ of the coal bill on average colliery boiler- plants, and we are willing to be paid on results. Also we are not interested in the sale of any plant, machinery or appliances, or in any other firm. We shall be glad to explain our proposition personally or by letter, and are prepared to visit your Colliery free of charge, and to give you our opinion of the working of your boiler-plant.
