History of soda water
Anesthetists throughout the world the name of Joseph Priestley in the first place memorable and expensive, of course, in connection with the discovery in 1772 of nitrous oxide, subsequently became widely used and popular anesthetic.
On the curative properties of mineral waters with gas already knew four thousand years ago in ancient Greece and ancient Rome. Great scientist Hippocrates in his treatise "On the air, waters and places" wrote that the patients were treated in the font in the temples. Greek priests strictly guarded their secrets, preserving the healing power of mineral water.
Hippocrates (ca. 460 - ca. 377 BC), Greek physician and teacher, "the father of medicine", is the author of an extensive collection of Greek medical works.
Extant Hippocratic corpus ( "Hippocratic Collection") contains approx. 70 individual works, although some of them - part of the common works. Collection contains both their own writings of Hippocrates, and works by other authors, written at different times.
The treatise "On the air, waters and places" refers to 5. BC is truly a "golden book", which has taken a firm place in the history of science. There on the examples, arguments and convincingly the influence on the overall health of the three factors of the environment. Illnesses or predisposition to disease may be caused by weather conditions, such as very hot summers and rainy winters. The factors that affect health, are considered local climatic conditions - the prevailing wind direction, the orientation of the city on the sides of the world. A water quality is defined as one of the immediate causes of some diseases, offers advice, which sources preferred. The second part is devoted to the works of various influences of climatic conditions on the formation of national types. The author evinces a deep knowledge of non-Greek peoples, especially the nomadic Scythians, who inhabited the southern territory of modern Ukraine and Russia.
Opening the secret of carbonated water was as unexpected as most great discoveries. English scientist Joseph Priestley (1733-1804 gg.) Lived next door to the brewery, and watching her work, became interested in what kind of highlights beer bubbles during fermentation. Then he hoisted the two containers of water on cooking with beer. After some time the water recharged beer with carbon dioxide. Attempt to obtain a liquid, the scientist was struck by her unexpectedly pleasant sharp taste and in 1767 he produced the first bottle of soda water.
In 1772 for the discovery of soda Priestley was adopted into the French Academy of Sciences, and 1773g. - Received a medal of the Royal Society.
Joseph Priestley (Joseph Priestley, 1733-1804) - English clergyman, chemist, philosopher, social activist, was born in Fildhede near g.Lidsa (Yorkshire, England), March 13, 1733 He was the eldest of six children in the family draper Jonas Priestley. In 1742 it was brought up by Sarah Kigli aunt on the maternal side.
Priestley was in school Betli, where the depth studied Latin and Greek. After a short break in training associated with the disease, Priestley decided to devote his life to serving the church. By this time he already succeeded in learning other languages and knew French, German, Italian, Arabic and even the Chaldeans.
It Priestley was the first time hydrogen chloride, ammonia, fluoride, silicon, sulfur dioxide ...
The name of Priestley is one more wonderful invention, without which it is impossible now to imagine the life of modern student or the student. Priestley accidentally discovered that raw natural rubber is able to erase the traces of graphite (pencil) is better than a particle of bread that had been used while for the same purpose. This is the advantage of rubber due to the fact that its friction on the paper produces the electrostatic voltage, which allows particles rubber attract particles of graphite. And so was born all the familiar eraser.
And in 1770 the Swedish chemist Torbernite Olaf Bergman (1735 - 1784.) Invented a device with which it was possible to make soda in large enough quantities. This device is called jerk.
Further developments in this area made Johann Jakob Shvepp, of German descent, holding a jewelry store in Geneva. He dreamed of creating a youth non-alcoholic sparkling wine - with bubbles, but without the alcohol. 20 years of experiments have been successful and in 1783 he invented an industrial installation for the production of carbonated water. Shvepp first to sell its beverage in Switzerland, but soon realized that in England the demand for it will be higher, and in 1790 moved there. The British were famous for their addiction to brandy, and Shvepp expected to complete its product niche diluents brandy.
Shvepp founded in England still thriving company, which started selling soda in glass bottles with embossed logo. In 1930, the company J. Schweppe & Co began producing carbonated lemonade and other fruit water.
Yet flavored soda, in all likelihood, was devised on the western shore of the Atlantic. In 1807, it coined the Philadelphia physician Philip Singh physicist. It is prescribed to patients ennobled syrup soda, who made his prescription pharmacist Townsend Spikman. Soon, American cities have appeared and the first soda-water stands, but the wide distribution it received. Accessible Americans its manufacturing technology was primitive, but the staff Shveppa remained a secret.
In 1832 a young immigrant from England, John Matthews began to produce in New York quite decent carbonator. He improved the design Shveppa and technology of carbon dioxide. Thus, the production of artificially carbonated water has to gain momentum. Began to appear firm, offering soft drinks with flavored.
