STORAGE OF COAL UNDER WATER.

THE CHINA

THE CHINA LIGHT & POWER

It will be remembered that the Adwiralty We now engaged in experients with a view to discovering if the great deterioration in quality, bibere inseparable from the stur- aga of coal for any length of time, cannot be retarded by keeping the coal submerged, An interesting light is thrown on the ques tion by Me Y. Macaulay, the general man- ager of the Alesandra Docks and Nailway, Newport, in a letter recently published in 1814

the Timer. A considerable amount of coal has been recovered from the bottom of the Alexandra Docka, some of which was known

to have been wider water at least ten years, Other conl

and the rest three years.

mubtaorged by about 19 per cent.

Mr

Macauly states that coal stored in free air for any time generally loses 10 per cent of its steam-cnixing power, most of the loss curring within the first twelve months. Ho sums up his experiquees in the following conclusions: 1. That steam coal loses very little of its power by submersion under water for the length of time it would 2, he reasonably kept in naval stare, That as it is so important to naval vessels to gain the benefit of their full working i power, and so much of this is due directly to the coal, the subaqueous storage of coal at uarul hoses is advisable, in place of the present method of storing with access of air, by which so high a percentage of work- ing power is lost. 3. That staingo in a con- erato reservoir holding eay, 260,000 tons, would offer the following advantages :-(12) Cheapness; (b) the coal be easily got at when needed, as all that was necessary would ha to pump the sea water out of the reservoir. It would also be taken ont quickly and economically by means of graba; and (c) the reservoir, being sunken, would be less liable to injury from hostile attack.-Engineering.
