Abstract

Tilghman, in 1866, discovered the fundamental principle of the sulfite process - the treatment of wood with a solution of sulfur dioxide gas in water, with the addition of an alkaline bisulfite. However, he was un­able to pursue this discovery because of the difficulty of obtaining acid resisting materials.
