Not illustrated. 1918 Excerpt: ...the smaller sizes of anthracite. 5. Carbonized lignite briquets, for domestic service in house heating stoves and furnaces, fireplaces, and cooking ranges. This fuel, ton for ton, compares favorably with anthracite coal, and is an ideal domestic fuel in such rigorous climates as those of North Dakota and Alaska. In climates where the thermometer noi infrequently goes to 40 below zero, the demand is immediate and very large. 6. Sulphate of ammonia and producer gas: The raw lignite just as it is mined, when used in by-product gas producers of the Mond type, makes sulphate of ammonia, producer gas, and some tars of undetermined value; there is no solid residue except ash. Lignite carries on the average, about 1.40 per cent, of nitrogen. If the nitrogen were wholly recovered as sulphate of ammonia, the yield would be about 147 lbs. per ton of lignite. This theoretical yield of course could not be obtained in commercial practice; the actual yield of sulphate of ammonia per ton of lignite gasified would be 70 to 80 pounds. Ammonium sulphate is now selling for 6 to 7 cents per pound. Before the war it sold for 3 to 2XA cents per pound; but, as the price of this commodity is determined in world markets, it will probably drop bark to near the pre-war price when industrial conditions become normal. The gas ield per ton of lignite would be 60,000 to 70,00a cubic feet of about 140 b.t.u. per cubic foot. This gas could be used as a furnace fuel or in a gas engine to produce power. If the latter, it would yield 700 to 800 horse power hours per ton of lignite gasified. The fact that the lignite does not coke in the sense that bituminous coal cokes, but rather crumbles, on being carbonized, makes possible a continuous and comparatively inexpensive distilling process, thus ...
