Otyi-- State -- WNtJ Chicago SC By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN T'SCLE GHOALS, an enormous hydraulic power and navigation development In process of construction by the United States government on the Tennessee river lu northern Alabama, Is a subject of nation-wide discussion by the American people. Variouu circumstances have combined to fix popular attention upon these government- owned properties, the world's largest hydraulic development. America's entrance into the World war In 1917 found us dependent upon Chile for nitrates with which to manufacture explosives Nitrates can be taken from the nitrogen In the air. The power and the facilities for the manufacture of an adequate supply were not available. Hence the federal government decided to construct arbitrate plant of Its own. Muscle Shoals was selected as the site because It had ample water power, was convenient to the raw materials, coal and llme» stone, and was secure from a military viewpoint Work was begun at Muscle Shoals in July of 1918. At the signipg of the armistice in November of 1918 a steam-power nitrate plant had been practically completed. Wilson Dam, however, had been barely begun. Congress decided to complete Wilson Dam and It will be ready to deliver Its power some time in 1925. Muscle Shoals did not become useless at the signing of the armistice. On the contrary It possesses great peace-time possibilities. It can be made a source of two of the most Important factors in our Industrial development--electricity and nitrogen compounds. The uses of electrical power are almost limitless. Nitrogen compounds can be made into either explosives or fertilizer, the preliminary stages of manufacture being the same. Completion of the Muscle Shoals project will also greatly Increase the navigability of the Tennessee river. During the last two years several offers have been made to the War department for part or all of the Muscle Shoals properties. The secretary otwar referred these offers to congress with the request for legislation covering the situation. Muscle Shoals Project In Detail. President Coolldge, in a message to cougress December 6, 1923, recommended that the properties be sold, subject to the right of the government to retake them in time of war and with a covenant that experimentation for the manufacture of fertilizers be carried on to success. He recommended that congress consider offers, conduct.negotiations and report definite recommendations. This article, however, Is solely for the purpose of giving the outstanding fucts in connection with the physical aspects of the Muscle Shoals development Other phases of the complicated situation are purposely ignored. The strictly war-time works at lluscle Shoals are far from representing all of the present undertakings, existing and proposed. If present plans are.carried out, the complete development comprises the following: Dam No. 1--This Is a small navigation dam to be erected at Florence, two miles below the Wilson, Dam. Its estimated cost is $1,400,000. Its construction is not yet approved. It is to contain a navigation lock and will provide sufficient depth of water up-stream to the Wilson Dam. From Florence to the Ohio, a distance of 257 miles, there is to be a six-foot channel. Dam No. 2--This is the Wilson Dam, elsewhere described In detail. It will develop power and Is provided with navigation locks. Its final cost Is estimated at $51,000,000. Dam No. S--This is a proposed power and navigation dum, located 18 miles above Wilson Dam. Its construction is not yet approved. It would raise the water in the river 40 feet and permit navigation a further distance up stream for about 65 miles. It would supply power to a maximum of 250,000 horsepower. This dam would be even longer than the Wilson Dam, but not so hifh. Its estimated cost Is $25,000,000. Nitrate Plant No. 1--This Is a relatively small nitrate plant built In 1U17 for experimental purposes at a cost of $10,000,000. Nitrate Plant No. 2--This is a large nitrate plant built to supply nitrates for explosives during the war. Its total cost, Including a 100,000-horsepower steam plant and a limestone quarry at Waco, was about $66,000,000. Villages--In connection with Nitrate Plants Nos. 1 and 2 complete villages for workers were built. Plant No. 2 covers a site consisting of 2,300 acres of land. It consists of six separate plants for the various chemical processes and there are In addition 188 permanent houses, with electric lights, lowers apd water supply; one hotel with 100 rooms, furnished with all modern Improvements; 22 miles of improved roads; 37 miles of standardgaqge raflr«Kf; 20 nflee of sewers; 18 miles ef domestic and fire water supply ; a 00,000,000-galfoa reservoir with pumping plant and filter, and an lc« plant. Gorgas Steam Power Plant--In order to obtain power for construction work and for operation of the nitrate plant while its main power supply was j still unavailable, a 40,000-horsepower generating plant was erected on the property of the Alabama V®«*er company at Gorgas, Ala., 88 miles away, and connected with Muscle Shoals by a long trans*- mission line. This plant is not an Integral portion of the Muscle Shoals de\elopment It was, therefore, sold to the Alabama Power company under an agreement made With that company at the time it was erected. */ Largest Dam In the World. r Th® Illustration given herewith suggests OVfc- Standing features of Wilson Dam. The inserted Map shows the relative positions of the three dams. The navigation part of the Muscle Shoals project Is too extensive and complicated to be described In detail here. In general It may be said that the Tennessee river rises In northeastern Tennessee, flows southwest, makes an east to west loop through northern Alabama and then flows north through Tennessee and Kentucky, joining the Ohlb Hear Its juncture with the Mississippi at Cairo. III. The Tennessee Is 652 miles long trm*\ V.iaxvllle, Tenn., to Paducah, Ky. At Muscle Shoals, In northern Alabama, the river falls 134 feet In 37 miles. Here Is the main obstruction to the through navigation of the river. With the three dams and the supplemental locks In operation, the Muscle Shoals obstacle would be removed. The Wilson Dam, as the illustration suggests. Is Mi impressive structure and pleasing to the eye. There are longer dams and dams that are higher, but none that is larger. Ministerial golfers In moments of stress requiring adequate expression will soon be expected to change over from Gatun or Assuan to Wilson, or at least to cap the climax with Wilson. It should be remembered that the stream here runs from east to west and that in the illustration the north bank Is at the left of t|ie plctiire. , Wilson Dam was built primarily for the purpose Of furnishing electric power, but the navlgaflon phase luid to be considered. This accounts for the lock on the north bank. Then comes the main dam and next the power house extending from the main dam to the south shore. The switch and control buildings will be located on the bluff on the south shore. If a drydock is needed in the future. It will be located upstream from the lock. Hugh L. Cooper, designing and supervising engineer of the Wilson Dam, says the entire structure will contain •« 80,500,000 solid cubic feet of masonry and cover 1 20 acres of ground. He visualizes this mass of ' masonry by saying it is equivalent to a concrete road from New York to Chicago, 16 feet wide and six inches thick. The project is being constructed •by the War department, corps of engineers, D. S. A„ under MaJ. Gen. Lapsing H. Reach, chief of engineers, and Brig. Gen. Ilarry Taylor, assistant chief, Immediately In charge. The construction forces are under the direction of Lieut Col. George R, Spalding. Mr. Cooper gays of the dam proper: The dam proper rises to » height or 137 feet abov* foundations and bark« up the water to a depth of M feet, from the bedrock to the new,water surface. The spillway section of the dam Is of the overfall gravity type of dam. Normal pool level above tlx dam U at elevation 501, normal tallwater la at elevation 409, thus making the normal head available 92 feet. The crest of the spillway Is at eleva* tlon 483, and each spillway opening is 38 feet wide In the clear, with an 8-foot pier between. Supported on these piers and arching over each spillway opening Is an arch bridge, serving as an operating deck for the spillway control gates and providing a double track bridge and roadway acroka the rlVer. In all. there are 58 spillway openings, •ach with a control gate of structural steel, 18 feet high and 40 feet long. "The last live sections of the dam, adjoining and connecting to the power house forebay, structure, •re not spillway sections," says Mr. Cooper. "In these five sections there are located thirteen sluices. Each sluice Is simply a 9-foot diameter conduit extending through the daui, protected at the upstream end by a massive concrete screen, •nd con11oiled at the downstream or discharge by a 108-inch butterfly valve. These valves ace operated by a small compressed air engine, mounted on a car which travels on a track above valves. When one of the sluices Is opened under full head It discharges a stream eight feet or more In dfe •meter at a velocity at about 45 feet per second op thirty miles an hour. ' Enormous Power to Be Generated. "The power house structure can be divided Into two parts: the forebay structure and the power house building. The forebay structure is that portion of the structure which retains the water and serves as a part of the water barrier. It is designed to withstand the entire water pressure without the aid of the power house building. The arch bridge and roadway continue without change of grade over the forebay structure to the south shore. The power house is approximately 1,250 feet long, 100 feet wide and 134 feet high, and when completed will contain eighteen main units, two aux- Hlary apparatus sections and a shore sectlo®. ' ^Ultimate Installation calls for eighteen main power units, four of which are 30,000 horsepower each, and fourteen of 35,000 horsepower each. Four of the latter fourteen and the fouV 30,000 horsepower units are being Installed at the present time, making an Initial installation of 200,000 horsepower. Each power unit consists of a water j turbine of the Francis type, in a vertical setting, j with electrical generator above on the same shaft I The four 80,000 horsepower turbines were manufactured by the William Cramp & Sons Ship & ; Engine Building company, and the generators for same were made by the Westlngbouse Electric ft ; Manufacturing company. "Five thousand men are employed on the construction of this project. They work in three shifts, each shift working eight hours. This construction camp is In reality a falr-slxed to^n. The ' main concrete mixing plant Is located on an Island In the middle of the river. From here the concrete is hauled in large buckets on railroad cars to any part of the Job where it may be needed. Railroad tracks serve every available part of the work. In all biore than twenty miles of track have been laid for construction purposes. A construction bridge carrying railroad tracks as well as tracks for huge traveling derricks had to be constructed In order to build the forn^svork for the concrete, a lumber yard, sawmill andiayout platform had to 3* erected. The lumber used on the Job will run to millions of feet board measure." The manufacture, of destructive explosives from nitrates taken from the air is a fascinating subject, especially In connection with the fact that the same nitrates can easily be turned Into harmless and beneficent fertilizer. As it stands today. Nitrate Plant No. 2 can fix from the atmosphere the nitrates required for the continuous supply of ammunition for an army of 1,25O,(^T)0i men. In war time the cost of ammunition Is not an essential feature. \ j But can fertiliser be manufactureU^at Muscle 1 Shoals at ^peace-time prices? This seemsT?* be an ; unsettled question. MaJ. J. K. Craln, ordnance I department, U. S. A., says on this much-vexed j question in connection with the Muscle Shoals ' project. There Is some doubt that fertiliser can be produced by the process for which Muscle Shoals prop- j ertles are now equipped at a price low enough to j compete with the products from other sources. However, this subject Is engaging the attention of I scientists In both private and governmeiHal/eriiploy. Promising results have been attained at the/fixed nitrogen laboratory In Washington, D. C., /which laboratory was established by the War department, j but turned over to the control of the Department of Agriculture in 1921. The doubtful outcome of experiments In this field has caused the War department to oppose relinquishment of the title to • these properties without adequate guarantees that ' the plants must be returned to the control of the I government In an effective condition to be utilised In the manufacture of explosives, should they pass to the control of persons who did not continue their ' use of the manufacture of fertilisers. Taking Nitrogen From Air. ] "The raw materials employed In the mauufactur- ' Ing process are nitrogen, obtained from the air, : limestone, and coal, which la used In the form! of coke," says Major Craln. "The first step Is to burn the limestone to lime, which Is an oxide of , calcium (CuO). This is then mixed with coke (carbon) and the mixture is heated to a very high ! temperature In electric furnaces. The product thus formed Is a combination of calcium and carbon, j the familiar 'calcium carbide* (CaC-2) which generates acetylene when pluced In water. The carbide Is run out of the furnaces In a liquid state^ and after cooling and solidifying, is ground to a fine powder. "The next step Is to add nitrogen to the carbide. For this purpose practically pure nitrogen Is needed. There are several different methods of separating nitrogen from the oxygen of the air, but the one used at Muscle Shoals, because of Its simplicity and cheapness. Is first to liquify air and then to separate the two gases by taking advantage of the fact that the boiling points of the two liquid gases are slightly different. (Oxygen boils at --182.5 degrees Centigrade and nitrogen at --195.5 degress Centigrade.) The process is very similar to that used in separating mixtures of alcohol and water. "The actual fixation of the nitrogen Is now accomplished by passing it over the finely ground carbide heated »to a temperature of about 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit. A reaction takes place under these conditions) and a complex compound of calcium, carbon, 'and nitrogen, called cyanamlde (CaCN-2) is the result. "The next step In the production of both explosives and fertilizer is to heat the cyanamlde In large steel tanks with steam and water, which results in the formation of ordinary ammonia. "Ammonia can be readily changed Into nitric acid (I1NO-3), and from this acid any desired nitrogen compound for either agricultural or military purposes can be made. For fertilizers, ammonium phosphate and ammonium sulphate are the preferred forirs; while for explosives, there is a host of nitrogen product^ dynamite, T. N. I, apt many others." .
