Chemistry of Gas Manufacture

"The Chemistry of Gas Manufacture: Materials and Processes" (1904) by William John Atkinson Butterfield is a comprehensive treatise on the scientific and technical aspects of gas production. This meticulously detailed volume delves into the materials used, the chemical reactions involved, and the industrial processes employed in the manufacture of gas for lighting, heating, and power.

Butterfield's work offers a detailed exploration of the apparatus and machinery used, as well as the methods for purifying and testing gas. With its in-depth analysis and practical insights, this book stands as a valuable historical record of a pivotal technology of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and remains a fascinating resource for historians of science and technology.
