Abstract
MY knowledge of the continuous cyanamide process is confined to what appears in the Nitrogen Products Committee's report, and I am afraid I did not know that the preliminary heating of the carbide necessary before it can absorb nitrogen was carried out by electric arc heating. The arc itself is, of course, at a temperature far above that at which nitrogen can be absorbed by carbide.
