Ludwig Mond. Portrait of Ludwig Mond (1839-1909),German-British industrial chemist. Mond studied chemistry under Kolbe and Bunsen,but left for a career in industry. He discovered a process for recovering sulphur from waste from soda (sodium carbonate) manufacture. He set up his own soda works in 1872 and it became the largest in the world. Mond developed a new fuel,producer-gas,made by burning coal in a mixture of air & steam. In 1889,Mond developed a process to make nickel metal on an industrial scale. Warm nickel could be corroded by carbon monoxide to form nickel tetra- carbonyl; this could be heated to form pure nickel | |
