Abstract :
In the very valuable paper on “Power Plant Economics,” presented before this Institute, Jan. 26, 1906, by Mr. H. G. Stott, (Trans. Vol. XXV, pp. 1–27), attention was called to the utility of records of the percentage of CO2 (carbonic dioxide) present in the flue gases of a boiler plant, as a means of determining and of preventing those fuel losses which might be termed “avoidable”.
