Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This concise brief describes how the demands of World War I, often referred to as the Chemists' War, led to the rapid emergence of a new key industry based on fixation of atmospheric nitrogen. Then, as now, nitrogen products, including nitric acid, and nitrates, were essential for both fertilizers and in the manufacture of modern explosives. During the first decade of the twentieth century, this stimulated research into and application of novel processes. This book illustrates how from late 1914 the relations and developments in the first modern military-industrial complex enabled the great capital expenditures and technological advances that accelerated massive expansion, particularly of the BASF Haber-Bosch high-pressure process, that determined the direction of the post-war chemical industry.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. 236 pages : illustrations, maps ; 27 cm. This book deals with the arrival of modernity in the Holy Land in the form of the 86 km Jaffa-Jerusalem Railway. Befitting the completion of such a substantial undertaking, the inauguration, in September 1892, was a grand affair, attended by representatives of the Ottoman Empire, consuls, religious leaders, and foreign delegations. The tracks approached Jerusalem from the southwest through the Judean Mountains, taking advantage of the deep, winding river bed of the Soreq Valley. This afforded the least steep route, though even then the grades were a challenge for the locomotives. Since the tracks were of narrow meter-gauge they could easily follow the natural contours of the land on the ascent to Jerusalem, the highest point, at about 700 meters above sea level. . The railroad was the largest civil engineering project ever undertaken in the modern Holy Land. It was built to exploit the tremendous growth of pilgrim traffic and tourism during the second half of the nineteenth century. Though several proposals had been put forward since the 1850s, it was only in the 1880s that two young Jewish entrepreneurs, Joseph Navon of Jerusalem and Joseph Amzalak of Jaffa, backed by the Protestant banker Johannes Frutiger, were enabled to take the first steps leading to the acquisition of a license from the Ottoman government for laying down the iron rails. Unable to raise sufficient capital in Europe, Navon sold the license to a group of Catholic businessmen in Paris, who established the Société du Chemin de Fer Ottoman de Jaffa à Jérusalem et Prolongements. When the first locomotive was tested on a short length of track at Jaffa half the population turned up to witness the event, such was the novelty of the sight and sounds of the horse of fire and iron. Despite difficulties due to the low cost of construction and poor traffic during the early years, the railroad opened up Jerusalem to modern tourism, brought greater numbers of pilgrims, and contributed to the growth of the city. It also delivered fresh water in times of drought. This is the most thoroughly researched publication ever to appear on the first railroad in the Holy Land. Moreover, it relies extensively on the one resource that best captures the spirit of the Jaffa-Jerusalem Railway: magnificent photographs, mainly taken between 1891 and 1914. These early photographs, gathered from archives in Israel, the United States, England and Germany, are supplemented with those taken by British forces from December 1917 on, from Israel, Australia and England, and a number of color images dating from the mid-1980s. Details of locomotives and rolling stock, maps, tables of statistics, track plans, extensive notes, a bibliography, and index are included. The intended audiences, apart from general readers and railway enthusiasts, are historical geographers, historians of the Holy Land in modern times, and transport and tourism historians.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This monograph is the first comprehensive historical overview of the global synthetic ammonia industry, highlighting its critical role in fixing nitrogen from the air in order to produce the fertilizers that support a significant portion of the world s population. While the first part includes the storied Haber-Bosch process, introduced in 1913 by the German firm BASF, its main focus is on the largely forgotten Italian chemist Luigi Casale, the inventor of an alternative synthetic ammonia process. Casale had the distinction of launching the global synthetic ammonia industry through, and unlike BASF, the licensing of his technology. The narrative here incorporates the first biography of Casale, with descriptions of his innovations and the early years of his company, Ammonia Casale SA. Technical challenges, relationships with collaborators and investors, and patent issues are discussed. The second part, through a macro perspective, explores the industry s international expansion, the evolution of novel technologies, and contributions to the Green Revolution. Included are the roles of engineering contractors, high-capacity manufacturing units, and geopolitical contexts. The final chapter covers the recent past and briefly looks to the future with moves towards sustainability within the context of green hydrogen and ammonia production. This story of one of the world s most important industries is recommended for historians of modern science, technology, and business, chemical engineers, practitioners in the petroleum and chemical industries, and readers interested in technological advances that have shaped our world today.…
