It provides a comprehensive overview of the process of manufacturing carbide of calcium, which is a chemical compound used in the production of acetylene gas. The book covers the history of carbide production, the properties and uses of carbide, and the various methods used to manufacture it. The author begins by discussing the raw materials used in the production of carbide, including limestone and coke. He then goes on to describe the different types of furnaces used in the manufacturing process, such as the electric furnace and the open-hearth furnace. The book also covers the chemical reactions that take place during the production of carbide, including the reaction between calcium oxide and coke.The book is aimed at chemists, engineers, and anyone involved in the production of car
