This "canal" was once a dry passageway for the pushing mechanism; its primary function was to push the coke out of the ovens to the other side of the battery, and into a quenching car.

A great visual overview of the coke quenching process can be seen at the Pullman State Historical Site (although the process illustrated here would happen on the other side of the coke battery).
