Charles-Saint-Ange Thilorier was a student at the École polytechnique in the class / year of 1815, who was mistakenly believed to have been the first person to create solid carbon dioxide ("dry ice"). Actually, a French inventor, Adrien-Jean-Pierre Thilorier (1790–1844), discovered dry ice.
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide (CO 2), a molecule consisting of a single carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. Dry ice is colorless, odorless, and non-flammable, and can lower the pH of a solution when dissolved in water, forming carbonic acid (H 2 CO 3). [1]
1862 – Alexander Carnegie Kirk invents the Air cycle machine; 1864 – Charles Tellier patented a refrigeration system using dimethyl ether; 1867 – Thaddeus S. C. Lowe patented a refrigeration system using carbon dioxide, and in 1869 made ice making machine using dry carbon dioxide. The same year Lowe bought a steamship and put a compressor ...

The machine employed a 5 m (16 ft.) flywheel and produced 3,000 kilograms (6,600 lb) of ice per day. In 1856 Harrison went to London where he patented both his process (747 of 1856) and his apparatus (2362 of 1857). [3] Also in 1856, James Harrison, was commissioned by a brewery to build a machine that could cool beer.
1856: James Harrison produces the world's first practical ice making machine and refrigerator using the principle of vapour compression in Geelong, Australia. [428] 1856: William Henry Perkin invents mauveine, the first synthetic dye. 1857: Heinrich Geissler invents the Geissler tube.
This timeline of clothing and textiles technology covers events relating to fiber and flexible woven material worn on the body. This includes the making, modification, usage, and knowledge of tools, machines, techniques, crafts, and manufacturing systems ( technology ).
It’s big and clunky, and it only does one thing. In fact, it’s really redundant since your kitchen already has a bread-making machine. It’s called an oven. Instead: Simply make use of that oven.
