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.
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.
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 ...
Bluing (steel) is a passivation process in which steel is partially protected against rust Bluing may also refer to: Bluing (fabric), a blue dye used to improve the appearance of fabrics; Bluing (hair), a blue dye used to improve the appearance of hair "bluing" of machine parts to check for tolerances, see engineer's blue
Since Mediawiki now supports svg files, please use tools (like Inkscape) which can create svg output for vector graphics. For help on the process, see Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Inkscape. This tutorial aims to instruct a beginner on the basic principles of vector graphics using Microsoft Word (Office 97 or later).
