Book Description
Excerpt from The Uses of Peat: For Fuel and Other Purposes The Bureau of Mines is making a comprehensive investigation of the composition, heat value, and utility of the mineral fuels in the United States. In the course of its research the bureau is giving particular attention to methods of mining and utilizing fuels to the end that waste may be avoided and deposits of low-grade fuels now lying unmined may be made important assets of the Nation's mineral wealth. The investigation as a whole is a continuation of the testing and analyzing of fuels, as carried on by the United States Geological Survey, from the inception of the work in 1904 to the transfer thereof to the Bureau of Mines on July 1, 1910. In consequence of the transfer of authority this bulletin is published by the Bureau of Mines, though it was prepared under the direction of the Geological Survey. The bulletin sets forth the results of an investigation that was undertaken to determine whether peat, a fuel widely used in some countries, could be made serviceable in the United States, where, though labor and economic conditions differ from those in the peat-using countries, there are opportunities for the introduction of a fuel selling at prices that should make the mining and shipment of peat to near-by markets profitable. In connection with the investigation of the possibilities of utilizing peat as fuel, attention was incidentally given the possible development of other uses with the view of increasing the value of a material that hitherto has not been generally considered an important natural resource of the United States.
