  2. Wood-burning stove - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood-burning_stove

    Wolfgang Schroeter invented the first wood-burning stove with a cast iron frame and glass door. This allowed the user to see the fire burning inside the stove. [16] A fireplace insert converts a wood-burning fireplace to a wood-burning stove. A fireplace insert is a self-contained unit that rests inside the existing fireplace and chimney.

  3. Oxalic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxalic_acid

    Oxalic acid is sometimes used in the aluminum anodizing process, with or without sulfuric acid. [57] Compared to sulfuric-acid anodizing, the coatings obtained are thinner and exhibit lower surface roughness. Oxalic acid is also widely used as a wood bleach, most often in its crystalline form to be mixed with water to its proper dilution for use.

  4. Sodium oxalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_oxalate

    It is the sodium salt of oxalic acid. It contains sodium cations Na + and oxalate anions C 2 O 2− 4. It is a white, crystalline, odorless solid, that decomposes above 290 °C. [2] Sodium oxalate can act as a reducing agent, and it may be used as a primary standard for standardizing potassium permanganate (KMnO 4) solutions.

  5. Oxalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxalate

    Oxalate (systematic IUPAC name: ethanedioate) is an anion with the chemical formula C 2 O 2− 4.This dianion is colorless. It occurs naturally, including in some foods. It forms a variety of salts, for example sodium oxalate (Na 2 C 2 O 4), and several esters such as dimethyl oxalate ((CH 3) 2 C 2 O 4).

  6. Pyrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrolysis

    Vacuum Ovens use pyrolysis in a vacuum [92] avoiding uncontrolled combustion inside the cleaning chamber; [87] the cleaning process takes 8 [88] to 30 hours. [93] Burn-Off Ovens, also known as Heat-Cleaning Ovens, are gas-fired and used in the painting, coatings, electric motors and plastics industries for removing organics from heavy and large ...

    John S. Perry started building wood stoves in 1843. [2] After becoming bankrupt in 1860, Perry secured a loan in the amount of $13,000 to buy the company in 1862. [2] Perry reorganized the company to become Albany Stove Works in 1869. It employed nearly 1,200 people in the Albany region. [2] Perry Stove Manufacturing Company

  8. Ammonium oxalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_oxalate

    It is an ammonium salt of oxalic acid. It consists of ammonium cations ([NH 4] +) and oxalate anions (C 2 O 2− 4). The structure of ammonium oxalate is ([NH 4] +) 2 [C 2 O 4] 2−. Ammonium oxalate sometimes comes as a monohydrate ([NH 4] 2 C 2 O 4 ·H 2 O). It is a colorless or white salt under standard conditions and is odorless and non ...

  9. Calcium oxalate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_oxalate

    Calcium oxalate crystals are commonly found in lichens, where they occur in two mineral forms: weddellite (CaC 2 O 4 ·(2+x)H 2 O) and whewellite (CaC 2 O 4 ·H 2 O). These crystals can form both on the surface of the lichen as a powdery coating called pruina and within the internal structures of the lichen thallus. The type and distribution of ...
