Excerpt from The Chemistry of Gas Manufacture
In the present volume - which may be described as a small work upon an inexhaustible subject - the Author's aim has been to confine the work strictly to certain aspects of the Chemistry of Gas Manufacture, leaving the operations of manufacture alone.
A knowledge of the elementary truths and processes of Chemistry being pre-supposed, he has endeavoured to furnish the working gas engineer and manager with a concise manual, covering questions and points requiring attention in the ordinary course of his duties, which, it is believed, will be found of practical utility, especially in those gas works where the operations are not of so great an extent as to necessitate the employment of a separate chemical staff.
The volume, it is hoped, should also prove of utility to students of Gas Manufacture as well as to managers, as preparatory to the study of works of a larger scope.
