Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is one of the most famous works on the production of materials obtained by the distillation of wood, including charcoal, wood-tar, pyroligneous acid and acetone. It is the outcome of the author's long and arduous experience in this field, during which time he has both owned factories and worked as a consultant for other companies. Destructive distillation of wood has been practiced since ancient times to produce charcoal, one of the book's main subjects, and has evolved from simple forest-based methods to the complex industrial processes of today. The volume also covers topics such as the chemical changes which occur during destructive distillation (pyrolysis) of wood, the products thereof (such as non-condensable gas), the preparation of wood for carbonization, carbonizing apparatus, treatment of the wood-gas, and the production of acetate of lime from crude pyroligneous acid. The author also explores the manufacture of acetone from calcium acetate and formaldehyde using methanol as a base material. The volume includes extensive analytical information and is a goldmine of knowledge on the practice of wood distillation in the early 20th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781390928921_0
