Ardeer, ICI works. Nobel's explosives factory. Photographic copy of an early illustration showing ntro-glycerine nitrator and operator sat on one-legged stool. The process of nitrating glycerine is exothermic creating heat, and required the circulation of cooling water to maintain a safe temperature.
The one-legged stool was therefore a safety device designed to prevent the operator from falling asleep, thereby ensuring that he paid close attention to the thermometer. |
