路布兰制碱法的历史演变及教育价值

Evolution and Pedagogical Values of the Leblanc Process

人教社新版教材中介绍,化工史上制碱法主要有:路布兰制碱法、索尔维制碱法和侯氏制碱法。检索发现,介绍索尔维法和侯氏联合制碱法的中文文献较多,而介绍路布兰制碱法的中文文献不多。通过梳理文献,介绍了路布兰制碱法产生的历史背景,在法国的产生、在英国的成熟以及与索尔维法的相互竞争而消亡的演变过程,最后在此基础上总结了路布兰制碱法在化工史上的历史地位及其教育价值。

The new high school chemical textbook published by the People’s Education Press in China introduces that there are three processes of soda in chemical industry history: the Leblanc process, the Solvay process and the HOU’s process. Literature retrieval has found a lot of Chinese literature introducing the Solvay process and the HOU’s process, but little literature focuses on Leblanc process. The paper reviews the context of emergence of the Leblanc process in France, the maturity in England and the decline competed with the Solvay process. By tracing the rise and fall of the Leblanc soda process, the paper concludes the role of the Leblanc process in chemical industry history and its pedagogical values.
