COAL RETURNS TO

C-E designed boilers will power the first six coal-fired steamships ordered in two decades. Naturally.

Combustion Engineering has long been a world leader in both marine boilers and coal-firing technology. So its only natural that C-E boilers were selected to power the first six coal-fired steam- ships ordered in 20 years.

C-E designed coal-fired boilers will be aboard two 75,750 DWT bulk carriers to be built by Italcantieri, SpA for Bulkships Limited of Australia.

Boilers of our design will also be on a pair of 74,700 DWT bulk carriers under construction by Mitsubishi

Heavy Industries, Ltd., Japan, for The

Australian National Lines. As well as on two 154,400 DWT bulk carriers to be converted by E. N. Bazan of Madrid for E. N. Elcano of Spain.

Many countries, eager to lessen their dependence on oil, are planning new coal-fired electric generating sta- tions. C-E is ready with the technology and know-how needed to build new marine boilers for coal-fired steamships that will provide economical coal trans- port for these new stations.
