Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Producer Gas: A Sketch of the Properties, Manufacture, and Uses of Gaseous Fuel
IN 1902 the Author gave a course of lectures on Producer Gas at the Technical College, Glasgow. These attracted considerable attention, and it was requested that they should be published. As there was no convenient book dealing with the subject, the Author thought such a one might be useful; so he has prepared this little book, which is based on the notes of the lectures. Owing to unavoidable circumstances, the publication has been some what delayed, but this has perhaps not been altogether a disadvantage.
The subject of gaseous fuel has been attracting a great amount of attention during the last few years, and very important advances have been made. The use of fuel gas is becoming every year more general, though the Author feels that at present it is only in its infancy, and that in the near future it will be used on a much larger scale, and for many purposes.
