Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sulphur in Petroleum Oils
When the Canadian oil fields, and soon afterward those in Ohio and the adjacent States, were tapped, the removal of the comparatively large amounts of sulphur they contained became at once a refinery problem of the first importance. It is an interesting coincidence that F rasch, who years later developed the process by which the immense deposits of sulphur in Louisiana and Texas are worked, devised, the first commercially successful method of removing sulphur from petroleum.
