Coal is fed from coal staithes (1) to the boiler bunkers (2) by a conveyor belt, from where it is fed into pulverising mills (3) which grind the coal to powder. The pulverised coal is carried by a stream of air from the mills to the boiler burners (4), where it is blown into the furnace (5) to burn like a gas.
