Heat for drying will be supplied by furnaces whichwill inclose the driers for the greater part of theirlength. The furnaces will be fired with powdered coaland the gases of combustion will pass into the driersat the discharge ends and be sucked through the shell,together with the moisture and dust from the coal,by fans at the opposite ends. These fans will dischargeinto cyclone dust collectors installed on the roof. After drying, the powdered coal will be delivered tothe dry-coal bunker on the roof by means of a bucketelevator. From the dry-coal bunker the coal will feedthrough chutes to four pulverizing mills, built by theFuller Engineering Company. These will grind the dryco
