    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluing_(steel)

    In the nitre bluing process, polished and cleaned steel parts are immersed in a bath of molten salts—typically potassium nitrate and sodium nitrate (sometimes with 9.4 grams (0.33 oz) of manganese dioxide per pound of total nitrate). The mixture is heated to 310 to 321 °C (590 to 610 °F) and the parts are suspended in this solution with wire.

  3. Niter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niter

    Niter or nitre [5] is the mineral form of potassium nitrate, KNO 3.It is a soft, white, highly soluble mineral found primarily in arid climates or cave deposits. Historically, the term niter was not well differentiated from natron, both of which have been very vaguely defined but generally refer to compounds of sodium or potassium joined with carbonate or nitrate ions.

  4. Engineer's blue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineer's_blue

    Engineer's blue is prepared by mixing Prussian blue with a non-drying oily material (for example, grease).The coloured oil is rubbed onto a reference surface, and the workpiece is then rubbed against the coloured reference; the transfer (by contact) of the pigment indicates the position of high spots on the workpiece or conversely highlight low points.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_nitrate

    A nitre bed is a similar process used to produce nitrate from excrement. Unlike the leaching-based process of the nitrary, however, one mixes the excrements with soil and waits for soil microbes to convert amino-nitrogen into nitrates by nitrification. The nitrates are extracted from soil with water and then purified into saltpeter by adding ...

  6. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

    A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

    The color depends on voltage. Many other electrolytes can be used—even Coca-Cola. Straw yellow / 10V – violet / 29 V – blue / 30 V – blue green 45 V – light green / 55 V – purple-red / 75 V – grey / 110 V. It is mandatory that this process must be performed wearing rubber gloves (potentially dangerous voltage!). [37]
