A method and apparatus are claimed for preventing generation of smoke from a coke oven. This system involves: a plurality of juxtaposed and alternately disposed combustion chambers and carbonization chambers so that the carbonization chambers are heated by heat generated in adjacent combustion chambers; exhaust gas is exhausted from the combustion chambers through a common smoke duct and a chimney; the exhaust gas is passed through a common exhaust gas duct including a dust collector for a predetermined interval after loading raw material coal into the carbonization chambers.
