Was this what used to be called "the Muny? Light plant?", Linas? The Journeyman electrician that trained me in the early 70's, later became a boiler engineer. He said that the reason they have shut down sooooo many coal powered power generating facilities, is because that even with all the sophisticated scrubbers and pollution controls, a lot of coal being stripped out of the ground is what they call dirty coal. A lot of other impurities, including, just plain dirt, is mixed in with the coal, and it is impossible to maintain output pollution ranges between the high and low levels consistently. They get dinged and fined for every minute that smoke/steam is released over the limits. In the long run, it becomes cheaper to burn gas, after the fines. He said at the time (2008), that 60% of all natural gas in the US is used to generate electricity, and that increases our gas bills, but makes the gas people happy

It's 100% real. Look at the boats on Lake Erie. Look up the power plant, and its history. I live 30 minutes away, and I have no scale model lol.

Nice to see this in a tranquil light, free from the urgency and turmoil of what happens inside. In Canton, 60 miles to the south of you, most of this is now gone. Driving past the mills, with all the banging and horns going off, with workers, soaked head to toe in the 60's leaning out the windows on breaks, trying to get some fresh air and a breeze, was all I ever saw. What a contrast

The blast furnace remains the primary method of reducing iron ore first into cast iron, then by Bessemer converter to steel. The world and the USA needs steel. It is impossible to make steel in the required quantities without releasing a lot of carbon dioxide and other pollutants. It is to the great credit of the Cleveland and American steel industry that they have 'cleaned up' the process, at no small expense. Other countries like China and India can make cheaper steel because they still pollute unrestricted.

@@flamingfrancis I've worked coke ovens too, walked on top when the lids were off and the hot gases were spewing out. carbon dioxide is never a "pollutant" a pollutant damages an environment, even when "excessive" carbon dioxide disperses and becomes a benefit to life on Earth. At worst CO2 may be a contaminant. Classifying carbon dioxide as a pollutant is political malfeasance; if anything, the world needs more carbon dioxide and blast furnaces are a great way to get it

Bessemer converters gave way to open hearth furnaces and then basic oxygen converters (BOF). Bessemer converters have been out of primary steel making for 60+ years.
