The Atmospheric Nitrogen Industry: with Special Consideration of the Production of Ammonia and Nitric Acid

Abstract

THE original German edition of this work was published in 1923. It contained practically all the information which could be obtained from the literature up to March 1921. It has been the author's intention to make it a standard work by including a large number of economic data and a detailed survey of the literature. Vol. 1 contains a short general introduction and then a historical account of the nitrogen industry in each country of the world. Vol. 2 gives a technical description of the processes used in the nitrogen industry. The author has also included allied processes which may be important from their economic effect on the main industry. There are very complete indexes, bibliography, and list of patents.
