Excerpt from Technical Gas and Fuel Analysis

The years intervening since the appearance of the first edition have seen a distinct increase in our knowledge of the subjects covered in this book. Standard Methods for Samming and Analysis of Coal and Coke and also for Examination of Liquid Fuels have been studied and approved by several technical societies. Methods for analysis of gases have been critically studied and new technique developed by the staffs of various organizations, notably the Bureau of Mines and the Bureau of Standards, and by a number of individual workers. The litera ture has been carefully reviewed for this edition and the inclusion of new material has increased the size of the book about twenty per cent. No attempt has been made to describe all of the new methods nor to illustrate all of the various forms of apparatus now on the market. On the contrary the effort has been to illustrate types and to indicate essential features. Criticism has been solicited from teachers who have used the book as a text and the needs of students have been kept in mind, but the intention has also been to make the book one which would supply the practicing engineer and chemist with the most necessary information.
