process. Barrel process
Barrel process Bar"rel proc"ess (Metal.)
A process of extracting gold or silver by treating the ore in
a revolving barrel, or drum, with mercury, chlorine, cyanide
solution, or other reagent.
Basic processBasic process Ba"sic proc"ess (Iron Metal.)
A Bessemer or open-hearth steel-making process in which a
lining that is basic, or not siliceous, is used, and
additions of basic material are made to the molten charge
during treatment. Opposed to acid process, above. Called
also Thomas process. Bell process
Bell process Bell process (Iron Metal.)
The process of washing molten pig iron by adding iron oxide,
proposed by I. Lowthian Bell of England about 1875.
Bell-Krupp processKrupp process Krupp process (Iron Metal.)
(a) A process practiced by Friedrich Krupp, Essen, Germany,
for washing pig iron, differing from the Bell process in
using manganese as well as iron oxide, and performed in a
Pernot furnace. Called also the Bell-Krupp process.
(b) A process for the manufacture of steel armor plates,
invented or practiced by Krupp, the details of which are
secret. It is understood to involve the addition of
chromium as well as nickel to the metal, and to include a
treatment like that of the Harvey process with unknown
variations or additions. The product is mentioned by some
authors, as improved Harvey, or Harvey-Krupp armor plate. Bitumen process
Bitumen process Bi*tu"men proc"ess (Photog.)
Any process in which advantage is taken of the fact that
prepared bitumen is rendered insoluble by exposure to light,
as in photolithography.
Bower-Barff processBower-Barff process Bow"er-Barff" proc`ess . (Metal.)
A certain process for producing upon articles of iron or
steel an adherent coating of the magnetic oxide of iron
(which is not liable to corrosion by air, moisture, or
ordinary acids). This is accomplished by producing, by
oxidation at about 1600[deg] F. in a closed space, a coating
containing more or less of the ferric oxide (Fe2O3) and the
subsequent change of this in a reduced atmosphere to the
magnetic oxide (Fe2O4). C processioneaProcessionary Pro*ces"sion*a*ry, a. [Cf. LL. processionarius,

hairs. Carbon processCarbon process Car"bon process (Photog.)
A printing process depending on the effect of light on
bichromatized gelatin. Paper coated with a mixture of the
gelatin and a pigment is called
carbon paper or
carbon tissue. This is exposed under a negative and the
film is transferred from the paper to some other support
and developed by washing (the unexposed portions being
dissolved away). If the process stops here it is called
single transfer; if the image is afterward transferred
in order to give an unreversed print, the method is called
double transfer. Collodion processCollodion Col*lo"di*on, n. [Gr. ? like glue; ko`lla glue + ?
form. Cf. Colloid.] (Chem.)
A solution of pyroxylin (soluble gun cotton) in ether

film in photography.

Flotation process Flotation process
A process of separating the substances contained in
pulverized ore or the like by depositing the mixture on the
surface of a flowing liquid, the substances that are quickly

than those that sink.

The process of removing moisture from the blast of an iron
blast furnace by reducing its temperature so far that it will
