The Electric Furnace As Applied To Metallurgy - A Reading List 1900-1919

THE ELECTRIC FURNACE AS APPLIED TO METALLURGY. 1 A READING LIST, 1900-19J9. By CLARENCE JAY WEST. The following pages contain a list of magazine references on the construction and operation of the electric furnace as applied to the metallurgy of iron and steel and the non-ferrous metals. An attempt has been made to include all the important references since 1900, at which time the electric furnace was becoming established in the iron and steel industry. Since 1907 the reference to Chemical Abstracts is given in addition to the magazine references, since this source will enable the reader to eliminate many of the references here given as unsuitable for his particular needs. Criticism of the arrangement of this work is cordially invited, since we desire to make such studies of the greatest value to all interested. GENERAL. Acid electric furnace process.
