Advantages of aerocrete as a structural floor lie in its high heat-insulating value, its sound-deadening properties, its light weight.

...these two methods, is expected to add to the efficiency of oil refining. Unlike the present method of oil refining, hydrogenation is a synthetic process. In the presence of a catalyst, hydrogen is combined with crude oil under heavy pressures, high temperatures. The combined influences of catalyst, pressure and heat cause the hydrogen and the hydrocarbon molecules to split. The hydrogen atoms immediately combine with the hydrocarbons, form the proper light oil arrangement. Hydrogenation makes possible 100% gasoline recovery from the original crude oil. Recovery from straight-run and cracking is only...
