The Manufacture of Sulphuric Acid and Alkali

Abstract

WE heartily welcome Prof. Lunge's volume on the manufacture of sulphuric acid. It is the result of a rare combination of thorough knowledge of scientific theory with that intimate experience of the practical manufacture which can only be gained by those who come into daily contact with the problems presenting themselves in dealing with chemical operations on a large scale.

A Theoretical and Practical Treatise on the Manufacture of Sulphuric Acid and Alkali with the Collateral Branch.

By George Lunge, Professor of Technical Chemistry at the Federal Polytechnic School, Zurich (formerly Manager of the Tyne Alkali Works, South Shields). Vol. i. (John van Voorst, 1879.)
