The Dorr Plant at Bethlehem Steel
These are pictures I took in August of 1995 of
the Dorr Plant. Flu dirt is gathered and condensed and loaded into gondolas. When there where enough they were
sent out to Conrail. Thank you doctor_hiemlich and Rob Davis for the information. I've had these pictures of a really neat
building since 1995 but I never knew what it was.
According to doctor_hiemlich (who should know, he used to work for the PBNE):
' This was a water/scrubber way of filtering some of the dirt from
being released into the atmosphere. To the best of my understanding,
the water/slurry mix caked on a slowly rotating wide belt and dried.
This dirt then was filled into the small "BI gons".'
