From the standpoint of carbonization there seems to us but little difference between the organic elements that occupy the region, a, and those that occupy b.
Neither does time count for anything here, since, according to accepted ideas, the burial having been longer, the carbonization ought to have been more perfect, while the contrary is the case.
The higher the temperature at which thiscarbonization is conducted, the denser is the resulting product.
Mr. Mushet made some valuable experiments on the carbonization and incineration of coals.
The carbonization of wood in the common way is well known: after it is cut to the lengths required, it is piled on the ground in a pyramidal form, and covered with sod and clay, leaving a place for the current of air, and the smoke.
Whenever the carbonization has reached the proper point for forming good coke, the covering of coal dross is removed, and water is thrown on the heap to extinguish the combustion; a circumstance deemed useful to the quality of the coke.
This is drawn back after the carbonization is completed, whereby the charcoal falls from the coaking space into a subjacent vault.
He also considered in great detail the different processes of the carbonization of coal, and of increasing the production of the different important residual products of gas tar, and also the best method of extracting the benzine.
Silhouettes of those marine reptiles, the Ichthyosaurs, have been found, probably made by the slow carbonization of animal matter, showing not only the form of the body and tail, but revealing the existence of an unsuspected back fin.
The higher the heat of carbonization the more naphthalene appears to be produced, and gas managers of to-day find the removal of naphthalene from the gas a difficult problem to solve.
If the carbonization of the coal has been carried to its utmost point, the coke produced, has a brilliant silvery lustre.
The nature of the products obtained by the destructive distillation of coal varies according to the temperature of distillation, and the age or degree of carbonization of the coal.
It had more firmness, was eaten with less difficulty, and the osmazome as it was condensed by carbonization gave it a pleasing perfume.
A mere decoction of green coffee is a most insipid drink, but carbonization develops the aroma and forms an oil which is the peculiarity of the coffee we drink, and which would have been eternally unknown but for the intervention of heat.
The vapours evolved during carbonization are condensed in vertical air condensers.
Both during the carbonization of the bones and the distillation of the tar inflammable gases are evolved; these are generally used, after purification, for motive or illuminating purposes.
In all cases the oil should be sufficiently heavy to assure the highest horse-power and fuel and oil economy compatible with perfect lubrication, avoiding, at the same time, carbonization and ignition failure.
If continuous trouble with the carbonization of cylinders, smoking and sooting of spark-plugs is experienced, it is a sure indication that mechanical defects exist in the engine, assuming of course, that a suitable oil has been used.
