Metal Sawdust Burner Chimney of Yilian Timber

This 20m high sawdust burner chimney is of a sawmill in Klang.
It looks like it is having 2 extra silencer pipe which i think is sort of dust collector on the side
and it's seldom in use nowadays because most of the sawdust is recycled.

  2. It is a chimney,the two pipes is some sort of dust trap,every sawmill should have one if they wanna burn the sawdust inhouse,if not the people nearby will be breathing smoky air.

  4. Normally large metal components needs to be grounded to earth because there could be leakages alone the way,for example from the sawdust vacuum at the sawing machine or mother natures, lightning strike.
