Design Of High Tension Outdoor Substation, Joseph Worley Jan 1923

Design Of High Tension Outdoor Substation, Joseph Worley

Bachelors Theses

"The present day tendency appears to be toward the more frequent use of outdoor substations, where not only the section disconnecting switches, but also transformers, lightning arresters, and indeed all high tension equipment, are exposed to the weather. The control of local feeder circuits at the lower pressures would be by means of switch-panels in cheaply constructed houses erected near the transformers"--Introduction, page 3.


Boiler Feed Water Purification At The Gorge Power Plant, Akron, Ohio, Bernerd William Adams Jan 1923

Boiler Feed Water Purification At The Gorge Power Plant, Akron, Ohio, Bernerd William Adams

Professional Degree Theses

"The conditions of operation at the Gorge Power Plant were such that raw water was used in all the boilers. The boilers were operated at an average of about one-hundred and seventy-five percent rating and considerable scale formed in the tubes of the boilers. It was evident that this caused a large loss in fuel and increased the expense of maintenance. It was necessary to employ a number of men to remove the scale. An investigation was made to determine as nearly as possible the loss caused by the use of impure water. After the investigation, an attempt was made …

The Middle Ordovician Section In East Central Missouri, Morris James Ingerson, Josiah Bridge Jan 1922

The Middle Ordovician Section In East Central Missouri, Morris James Ingerson, Josiah Bridge

Masters Theses

"One of the most serious difficulties confronting anyone working on stratigraphic problems in the Ozark area is the lack of detailed faunal lists of the various formations. A great deal of general work has been done, but very few detailed faunal studies have ever been published, and correlation of the Missouri section with sections in adjoining states is often difficult.

In a recent paper, Dake has discussed the origin and correlation of the St. Peter sandstone. In this study he found considerable difficulty in correlating the various formations above the St. Peter, and at his suggestion, the present study was …

Glucose From Corn Cobs, Barney Nudelman Jan 1921

Glucose From Corn Cobs, Barney Nudelman

Masters Theses

"The efforts of American chemists in recent years have been devoted largely to the utilization of our waste products...Corn cobs offer a particularly inviting field for research along this line on account of the large supply of cobs available and the variety of substances obtainable from them. One of the leaders in this branch of investigation is Dr. F. B. LaForge of the Chemistry Division of the Bureau of Agriculture, who has contributed numerous papers on the subject. In one of these, in collaboration with C. S. Hudson, he describes, among other things, the preparation of glucose, but recognizes the …


The Copper Deposits Of Shannon County, Missouri, John Hyer Bowles, Lewis Ely Davidson Jan 1921

The Copper Deposits Of Shannon County, Missouri, John Hyer Bowles, Lewis Ely Davidson

Masters Theses

"The object of this report has been three-fold. First, it has been deemed necessary to discuss the general geology of the area about Eminence, showing the distribution and character of the different formations. The distribution is shown on a topographic map of the Eminence Quadrangle...In the second place, it is intended to give a detailed account of the history, development, and extent of mining operations in Shannon county, with the amounts of production and the occurrence of the ore. The third object of this report is to develop a probable theory for the genesis of the ore, and to discuss …


Characteristics Of Bacillus Influenzae, Georgena Josephine Clarke Jan 1921

Characteristics Of Bacillus Influenzae, Georgena Josephine Clarke

Masters Theses

"This organism is classed under the type of haemoglobinophilic bacteria, due to the fact that its growth is restricted to a special medium containing haemoglibin [sic]. It is a very small bacillus which in the sputum tends to show itself in aggregations, especially centering about other organisms, M. tetragenus in particular"--page 3.


The Mexican Oil Fields, Raul Chavez Jan 1921

The Mexican Oil Fields, Raul Chavez

Professional Degree Theses

"Owing to the large area involved in this paper it is proposed to give only briefly the history, geology and development of the oil industry in Mexico, as well as to discuss in a general way the present oil legislation which has brought so much comment in the papers and has raised to much diplomatic trouble between the Mexican and United States Governments. This discussion is therefore of a brief nature and only the most culminant features and details of the subject in mind are here treated. The information and data here given were accumulated during personal examination of the …


Furfural (Furfuraldehyde) And Some Of Its Derivatives, Marion Smith Badollet Jan 1921

Furfural (Furfuraldehyde) And Some Of Its Derivatives, Marion Smith Badollet

Masters Theses

"In the spring of 1919 the Eastman Kodak laboratories suggested to the chemistry department of the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy that experiments on small-scale production of furfural be undertaken. After a series of experiments a small amount of this product was made and a report was given before the American chemical Society at St. Louis in April 1920. The furfural prepared at the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy was sold to the Eastman Kodak laboratories. Within recent years very little experimental work has been done on furfural. It commands a high price as only small amounts are …

The Factors Influencing The Price Of Metals On The Metal Market, Thomas Patrick F. Walsh Jan 1920

The Factors Influencing The Price Of Metals On The Metal Market, Thomas Patrick F. Walsh

Masters Theses

"Every year the various engineering and industrial magazines print curves showing the rise and fall of metal stocks throughout the year. to the ordinary reader, these curves are seldom intelligible; he sees the ups and downs; he knows that the prices have risen and fallen; but he rarely knows what causes these changes -- and the curves themselves never tell. This paper tries to remedy this defect; it draws its curves, and, in the light of historical events, which it recounts, tries to determine the causes for the fluctuations in the market. it further places these factors on the curve …


Mining, Concentration And Refining Of American Flake Graphite By The Griesemer Graphite Company, Joseph C. Barton Jan 1920

Mining, Concentration And Refining Of American Flake Graphite By The Griesemer Graphite Company, Joseph C. Barton

Professional Degree Theses

"The Griesemer Graphite Company was incorporated June 3, 1916, under the laws of Alabama, for the purpose of mining, milling and refining of flake graphite...Owing to strong competition in the graphite game, it will be impossible to give many interesting facts and figures in this thesis. The screen analysis worked for after each operation is carefully watched and the preparing of the ore, as well as the sizing of the flake, is one of the most important features in the production of flake graphite, especially that grade required by the crucible makers and the lubricating manufacturers. The carbon content is …
