Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods for the Analysis of Ores, Pig Iron and Steel, in Use at the Laboratories of Iron and Steel Works in the Region About Pittsburg These methods, in use in the iron and steel laboratories of the region near Pittsburg, Pa., were collected and published by the Engineers Society of Western Pennsylvania during 1896. The supply of copies having been exhausted, in response to a continuous demand, the publication in more convenient form has been undertaken by The Chemical Publishing Company who have been authorized to do so by resolution of the Society at a meeting held March 13, 1897. These methods were detailed by the chemists in response to the following circular sent out by the committee in charge: Chemical, Section - Engineers' Society Of Western Pennsylvania, Pittsburg, Pa. In accordance with a resolution of the Chemical Section of the Engineers' Society of Western Pennsylvania, the undersigned wish to ask your cooperation in an effort to collect for publication in the proceedings of the society the methods of analysis in use in the various iron and steel works laboratories of the region. In calling the attention of chemists to the plan and asking their aid in its fulfilment, it should be mentioned that it is the aim of the section to secure accurate statements of analytical processes, describing with minuteness and clearness the successive steps, in order that the proposed compilation may represent as correctly as possible the present status of analytical chemistry as applied to iron and steel. A full presentation of the methods in general use is likly to prove of interest and value, but the completeness and promptness of the responses received from a large number of chemists must determine the success of the measure. In case you are willing to cooperate, you are requested to send to any one of the undersigned a full description of the methods you use for the determination of the following substances: In Ores - Silica, iron, phosphorus, manganese. In Pig Iron - Silicon, sulphur, phosphorus, manganese. In Steel - Carbon (by combustion), sulphur, phosphorus, manganese, nickel. Suggestions 1. If the method is described in a text-book or journal, a mere reference will suffice, but any deviations from the published methods should be noted. 2. In writing a description of a method it is very desirable that minute details should be given (e.g., weights taken, volume of solution, temperatures, etc., etc.). 3. If more than one method is used, please describe the one in every-day use on which the commercial transactions of the firm are based.
