Onaccount of this discharge, the path through; which the.

Thusthe dust is drawn out of the gases and the gases them-selves go on their way without hindrance. This entire installation is made at the top of thekiln stacks, eighty feet from the ground and consistsof twenty chambers or treaters, two to each stack. Atthe entrance to each chamber are arranged damperswhich are controlled by air cylinders. Dampers arealso provided at the exit. Once each hour these damp-ers are closed and the collecting plates thoroughlycleaned by shaking, which is done by means of airhammers which are connected to the plates. The ma-terial which is shaken from the plates is collected inhoppers from which it is taken by means of screwconveyors to its individual automatic weighing ma-
