EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from 1884, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the early days of the coal and compressed fuels industry. The photograph depicts a man operating a machine used in the manufacture of compressed fuels, specifically coal or coke. The industrial setting is evident with large machinery and equipment in the background, while the man in the foreground focuses intently on his task. Coal, a fossil fuel, had long been a primary source of energy for various industries and domestic use. However, the compression of coal into fuel briquettes or coke offered several advantages, including increased energy density, easier transportation, and improved combustion properties. The process of compressing coal into fuel involved heating and compressing the coal under high pressure, resulting in a solid fuel that could be easily transported and burned. The man in the photograph is likely working on a coal briquette machine, which would have consisted of a hopper to feed the coal, a compressor to press the coal, and a molding machine to shape the compressed coal into briquettes. The coal would have been heated to a high temperature before being compressed, which would have driven off moisture and volatile gases, making the coal more compact and dense. The manufacture of compressed fuels was an important development in the coal industry, as it allowed for more efficient and convenient use of this abundant natural resource. This photograph provides a fascinating window into the past, showcasing the innovation and ingenuity of the industrial age.
