By end-2011, the two countries also plan to set up a joint venture to upgrade low-grade coal to allow it to be used for heating and power generation, and to jointly invest about $300 million in a coal-gas power generation project, it said. ❋ Min-Jeong Lee (2011)
A compound of leather and library dust and cigar smoke, so sharp he could taste it, with a faint hint of something chemical—formaldehyde, perhaps, or coal-gas. ❋ Tom Nolan (2012)
In 1804, the same year he patented coal-gas lighting, Winzer demonstrated the technology during a lecture at London's Lyceum Theatre. ❋ Unknown (2008)
This picture of a coal-gas plant outlined in fluorescent blue against an eerie night sky looks like something straight out of a really bad sci-fi film. ❋ EliRabett (2008)
No, its got to be ‘Diet Coke’ as after all coke is made from baking coal (that nasty fossil fuel) and so removing the water (the good GHG), coal-gas (mainly methane a nasty GHG) and coal-tar (nasty Group 1 carcinogen). ❋ Unknown (2006)
*Also 1900-vintage open-burner gas cookstoves in two locations, good thing the coal-gas plant shut down back in the 1950s or the whole place could have gone boom long since, like that building in New York. ❋ Jhetley (2006)
"No, it's exactly like adding air to coal-gas," Renna corrected. ❋ McCaffrey, Anne (2003)
He awoke late, and with the disagreeable feeling of a man who has been half-suffocated with coal-gas: his head ached painfully. ❋ Unknown (2003)
Unlike Recluce, Kyphros and indeed, all of Candar, did not use coal-gas lamps. ❋ Modesitt, L. E. (1991)
The air was heavy with coal-gas, and the door wouldn't budge. ❋ DeAndrea, William L. (1980)
A convenient apparatus for the preparation of hydrogen sulphide from coal-gas, such as we have at present in use in the Christ College laboratory, consists of a retort, R, in which sulphur is placed. ❋ Various (N/A)
The end, T, of the glass tube is connected by caoutchouc tubing with the coal-gas supply, the perforated end dipping into the sulphur. ❋ Various (N/A)
The other constituents of coal-gas -- methane, carbon monoxide, olefines, etc. -- are not affected by passing through boiling sulphur, and for ordinary laboratory work their removal is quite unnecessary, as they do not in any way interfere with the precipitation of metallic sulphides. ❋ Various (N/A)
After explaining the nature and properties of coal-gas, one of the boys stated to the meeting, that since the commencement of this experiment, he had himself attempted, and succeeded in making gas-light by means of ❋ James Gall (N/A)
In many well-lighted libraries, the heat itself from the numerous gas-burners is sufficient to injure them, and there is besides a sulphuric acid escaping from the coal-gas fluid, in combustion, which is most deleterious to bindings. ❋ Ainsworth Rand Spofford (N/A)
Woodall, the engineer of the Leeds, England, gas-works, states that coal-gas costs in the holder 22 cents per thousand. ❋ Charles Whiting Baker (N/A)
His plea, that the animal did not generate sufficient power on coal-gas, left the Bench quite cold. ❋ Various (N/A)
The work of the chemical laboratory in which explosives are analyzed, and in which mine gases and the gases produced by combustion of explosives and explosions of coal-gas or coal dust are studied, has been of the most fundamental and important character. ❋ Herbert M. Wilson (N/A)
Hydrogen sulphide may be prepared very easily, and sufficiently pure for ordinary analytical purposes, by passing coal-gas through boiling sulphur. ❋ Various (N/A)
