Excerpt from Transactions of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, Vol. 12: Part II, 1919 The American Institute of Chemical Engineers is composed of men who are, above all, intensely practical: men who make it their like work to apply chemistry to useful ends. We have come to Savannah not merely to enjoy a proverbial and graciously extended hospitality, but chie y because we recognize that here there is much for us to learn. Your cotton oil mills, your great fertilizer fac tories, the secrets of your naval stores industry, the doors of many plants distinctively Southern in their type have been generously Opened to us. We Shall take with us on our return new and endur ing impressions of Southern courtesy and kindliness, convincing evi dence of the magnitude of industrial achievement in the South, and a new appreciation of the wealth of resource and of opportunity in this supremely favored section of our country, but our mission will have failed unless we leave behind us a message so vital and direct in its importance that it secures and holds your attention and thereafter in uences your action. It is no new message: it is the same in import as that carried by the American Electrochemical Society on its Southern tour in 1918; it was voiced and developed by many authorities of national reputation in the remarkable issue of September 14, 1916, of the Manufacturers Record; it has appeared on many editorial pages and in many government publications, and I myself have had the privi lege of bringing it to representative bodies of Southern scientists and business men. And that message in a word is this: The Future of the South is in Chemistry. To ensure acceptance any such general thesis properly requires demonstration. Suppose we begin by considering for a moment what the South already owes to chemistry. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Transactions of the American Institute of Chemical Engineering, Vol. 1 of 12 The Snyder or any other direct arc furnace is applicable only to true bronzes or other alloys low in zinc, 5% zinc being the probable limit. It is entirely impractical for use on alloys high in zinc. The only installation used for copper alloys is used on leaded bearing bronze, the new lead being added in the ladle. Much lead is volatilized from the scrap in the charge, and much fume results, giving bad working conditions. The installation of Snyder furnaces has a very poor power factor, though this is not necessary in a direct arc furnace.
