Résumé

Manufacturing Cost Data on Artificial Ice is a comprehensive and detailed report originally published by the United States Bureau of the Census in 1910. This book serves as an invaluable resource for historians, economists, engineers, and industry professionals interested in the early 20th-century artificial ice manufacturing industry. Drawing from extensive surveys and data collection, the book presents a thorough analysis of the costs associated with the production of artificial ice across various plants in the United States.
The content includes meticulously compiled tables and statistics covering every aspect of the manufacturing process, from raw material procurement and labor expenses to fuel consumption, maintenance, and overhead costs. The report breaks down the cost structure for different types of ice plants, including those using ammonia and carbonic acid processes, and provides comparative data to highlight regional and operational differences.
It also examines the scale of operations, plant capacity, and the impact of technological advancements on production efficiency and cost reduction. In addition to quantitative data, the book offers insightful commentary on industry trends, challenges faced by manufacturers, and the economic significance of artificial ice in the context of early refrigeration and food preservation. The detailed appendices and explanatory notes make it accessible for both technical and non-technical readers, ensuring a clear understanding of the methodologies used in data collection and analysis.
Manufacturing Cost Data on Artificial Ice stands as a testament to the rigorous data-driven approach of early industrial studies and remains a foundational reference for anyone researching the history of industrial manufacturing, the evolution of refrigeration technology, or the economic landscape of the early 1900s.
