Abstract
THE remarkably clear atmosphere which has been observed in many industrial centres during the coal strike has afforded an excellent object-lesson in smoke abatement. It should emphasise the desirability of making these conditions permanent. That the removal of smoke comes well within the range of practical achievement has been amply demonstrated by the International Smoke Abatement Exhibition which has just been held under the auspices of the London Coal Smoke Abatement Society. In the official catalogue of the exhibition we find references not only to the exhibits of smoke-saving and smoke-preventing appliances, but to practical demonstrations of their use. The exhibition has further provided opportunity for a series of excellent lectures and addresses by well-known authorities, which include men of science, engineers, and manufacturers of English, German, and American nationality.
