New Invention Makes Peal
Practical Indns trial Fnel
New York (AP) ? Scottish peat,
long considered an uneconomical
type of commercial fuel, may now
be used industrially, thanks to a
new British gas-turbine engine, re
ports the British Information
service here.
The invention is an open-cycle
internal combustion turbine of 750
kilowat capacity and operates in
conjunction with a special press
that removes two-thirds of the
water from the peat ? which is
originally about 90 per cent water.
Heat from the machine's exhaust
gases completes the drying process.
By this method the raw turf,
which formerly had to be dried in
open air, can be used independent
ly of weather or season.
