Welcome to Industrial Chemistry
Industrial Chemistry looks at the chemistry used in the real world to produce substances and compounds that are very useful to us:
| Haber Process | Haber Process to produce ammonia and how to increase yield; use of ammonia in fertilisers. |
| Electrolysis | Some basic chemical tests used to find negative or anions. |
| Oxidation and Reduction | Importance and definitions of oxidation and reduction, learn about redox and metal ores. |
| Extraction of Aluminium | The process (graphite cathode/anode, bauxite) of aluminium extraction and uses of the product. |
| The Blast Furnace | The blast furnace and a step by step look at the reactions going on. |
| Purification of Copper | Learn how tarnished copper can be purified e.g. recycling old copper pipes. |
| Crude oil and Fractional Distilation | Crude oil is distilled to separate fractions, learn how and the uses. |
| Steel | Making steel by bop process (oxygen lance, oxidation of waste gas) uses in making alloys. |
