Liebig said that we might gauge the

tity Of sulphuric acid 1t consumed The
total output Of this acid is now about
100000 tons, according to the fourth
edition Of Professor G. Lunge's trea-
tise on its Manufacture At least
100000 tons a year have been made
in Germany, and that country has been
importing about 10000 tons besides.
Sulphuric acid Is made principally
from iron pyrites, but also from zinc
blende. II Is essential in the manu-
facture of high explosives. but there is
scarcely a process Of manufacture into
which il does not enter. 1t Is said that
there is no branch Of chemical tech
nology that has been more thoroughly
developed than that Of the manufac-
ture Of sulphuric acid. but 50 keen Is
