Steam, Carl

Carl Gustaf de Laval (Swedish) improves the steam engine by devising a small, highspeed turbine in which jets of steam hit a single set of blades set on a rim of a wheel. 

Many steam car developers did not get beyond building a few hundred or thousands units, but many of the early gasoline car pioneers became major manufacturers. Gottlieb Daimler, Henry Ford, Ransom Olds, Carl Benz, William Durant (General Motors founder), James Packard and John Studebaker are a few who played important roles in the early years of autos. 

The workdays were becoming more and more predictable. I would come to the clinical testing facility at 0800 (unless I had been up half the night documenting some volunteer s bewildering antics) and Carl Steam would already be at his desk.

Evaluations of steamed catalysts were performed with a MAT unit using a standard mid-continent gas oil. The MAT conditions varied and are identified in the tables. Selectivities were determined from gas chromatographic analysis of liquid and gaseous products by Hewlett-Packard, simulated distillation hardware and Carle.,... 

The leaseholder of the Ducal Brickyard in Rosslau/Elbe (Germany) Mr. Carl Schneider engaged Carl Schlickeysen in 1857 to design a Universal Patent Brickmaking Machine to be driven by a steam engine, which produced the first bricks in February 1858 (Fig. 16). 

The process is of immense importance for the fixation of nitrogen for fertilizers. It was developed in 1908 by Fritz Haber and was developed for industrial use by Carl Bosch (1874-1940), hence the alternative name Haber-Bosch process. The nitrogen is obtained from liquid air. Formerly, the hydrogen was from water gas and the water-gas shift reaction (the Bosch process) but now the raw material (called synthesis gas) is obtained by steam reforming natural gas.
