The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1931

Carl Bosch, Friedrich Bergius

Friedrich Bergius

Born: 11 October 1884, Goldschmieden, near Breslau, Germany (now Poland)

Died: 30 March 1949, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Affiliation at the time of the award: University of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany, I.G. Farbenindustrie A.G., Mannheim-Rheinau, Germany

Prize motivation: "in recognition of their contributions to the invention and development of chemical high pressure methods"

Field: industrial chemistry

Work

Fossil fuels - coal, oil and gas - contain energy that can be converted into other forms through combustion. Coal in solid form is largely made up of the element carbon in pure form, while oil is rich in compounds of carbon and hydrogen - hydrocarbons. In 1913 Friedrich Bergius developed a method for transforming a solid form of coal - lignite - into liquefied oil. The method entails exposing the coal to hydrogen gas under high pressure to form hydrocarbons. The process has been used primarily to produce fuel for vehicles.

"Earth Abides"

by George R. Stewart, author

excerpts, page 74 of 346, Kindle edition

There was a great vacantness somewhere. From shock they were walking in a kind of haze. They were people without hope. New York, their world, had vanished; it would never live again in their time. They had no interest when Ish tried to tell them what had happened in the rest of the United States.









Rainbow Six (1998) - Tom Clancy

(from internet transcript)

excerpts, CHAPTER 6

TRUE BELIEVERS

The problem was environmental tolerance. They knew the baseline organism was as effective as it needed to be. It was just so delicate. Exposed to air, it died far too easily. They weren't sure why, exactly. It might have been temperature or humidity, or too much oxygen - that element so essential to life was a great killer of life at the molecular level - and the uncertainty had been a great annoyance until a member of the team had come up with a solution.
