Excerpt from Gas Chemists Handbook, 1916 The magnitude and delicacy of this work is fully realized and this is presented primarily as'a progress report. In time, the Institute would be well repaid for the expense incurred in the publication of such a handbook by the uniformity of practice that would result from the adoption of these methods and by the convenience to the gas Chemist of having recognized standard methods pertaining to the industry collected in one convenient publication. While this first issue of the Handbook was a very decided step in the right direction, it was recognized that much was still to be accomplished and the continuance of the work de volved upon the 1915 Committee on Chemical 'tests. This Committee was unable to do more than report satisfactory progress at the 1915 meeting of the Institute and the same Committee was re-appointed to continue the revision over 1916.

Excerpt from Gas Manufacture: The Chemistry of a Practical Handbook on the Production, Purification, and Testing of Illuminated Gas, and the Assay of the Bye-Products of Gas Manufacture; For the Use of Students, Chemists, and Gas Engineers The enormous growth of the Gas Industry during the past twenty years and the many new departures in the manufacture and application of gas have rendered the older works on Gas Manufacture comparatively useless to the modem student; it was, therefore, with pleasure that I undertook, at the request of the publishers, to endeavour to place at his disposal a text-book embodying the more recent advances. The raw materials - e.g., coal, coke, oil, &c. - commonly used in the manufacture are dealt with in Chapter I. Following this arc two chapters dealing solely with the production of coal gas, which still forms the bulk of the illuminating gas of the world. The modern improvements in apparatus and the most advanced methods of purification are dealt with in these chapters. The recent extensive employment of petroleum for gas-making has almost revolutionized some branches of the industry, and Chapters IV., V., and VI. are chiefly concerned with methods of utilizing mineral oils. The immense importance of a knowledge of the components of gas as a guide to its application, and, also, as an aid at different stages of its manufacture, justifies the introduction of a special chapter on Gas Analysis.
