Fundamentals of smoke abatement

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7223131
Enough group desire in many cities for better air has resulted in development of methods and schemes for attacking the problem. An ordinance must be passed to give authority to the program. Much work has been done on model ordinances. In 1924, a basic ordinance was prepared by a committee of representatives of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, the Stoker Manufacturers Association, the American Civic Association, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and members at large. This ordinance, which has served in the past as a reference in the development of many city smoke ordinances in this country is presented.
