Overview

Excerpt from Features of Producer-Gas Power-Plant Development in Europe The experiments made by Mr. H. Hall in 1890, 1892, and 1893 on a larger scale, and in shafts of mines, appear to be conclusive in the same sense, although they show that an explosion is not a certain consequence of every shot that blows out or emits flame, but depends on many circumstances affecting the condition and quantity of the dust, the nature and strength of the explosive, the size of the galleries or shafts, etc. The Prussian commissioners reported that if absolute immunity from blown-out shots could be obtained, the dangers which are brought about by coal dust would be almost entirely prevented. In their experiments they found that no shots, other than a blown-out Shot, caused an explosion of the dust.
