About the Collection
The Department of Chemical Engineering Technical Papers were written by University of Wisconsin chemical
engineers between 1900 and 1935. There are five volumes containing 190 papers. The papers have been made
available online because they show the development of the field of electrochemistry, which was the early
emphasis of this department. Additionally, they provide a history of the University of Wisconsin's Department
of Chemical Engineering itself.
Technical Note
Please note that full-text searching for the electronic-facsimile texts in our collections is based on uncorrected OCR (Optical Character Recognition) results. While such text is often highly accurate, it will contain errors that may affect your search results. In particular, texts with the following characteristics are particularly prone to error (in some cases, accuracy for such texts is so low that we have decided not to attempt to provide full-text searching):
- Hand-written texts;
- Texts that contain diacritics;
- Texts that contain non-Latin scripts;
- Texts that contain obsolete characters (including the "long S" [looks like an "f"]);
- Texts that are printed in a font in which the letters are difficult for the software to differentiate.
