| Keywords: Nitrous oxide production.png en A schematic showing the laboratory production of nitrous oxide This setup is the same one Joseph Priestley used The setup was made based on an image of the 1949 Popular Mechanics article by Kenneth M Swezey titled The gas that makes you laugh Images from http //commons wikimedia org/wiki/User Rocket000/SVGs/Chemistry were used to make this image Note that the setup shown here is not suitable for large scale production since the heating needs to be kept at 200°C meaning the flame of the bunsen burner needs to be constantly increased/decreased The use of a regulatable automated electric heater with imbedded temperature meter reducing or increasing the heat to attain a certain temperature would be better instead In addition if the nitrous oxide is intented to be used as an emissionless fuel the ammonium nitrate would first need to come from the ambient air currently AN is often made from fossil oil own KVDP 2010-05-17 Nitrous oxide | ||||
