Chloropicrin gas factory, Edgewood Arsenal, First World War
Chloropicrin gas factory, First World War. Industrial-scale chemical equipment used to manufacture chloropicrin gas at Edgewood Arsenal, Maryland, USA, during the First World War (1914-1918). Chloropicrin is a soil fumigant that was used as a poison gas in the First World War. This view shows condensers (pipes), steam stills (large cylinders) and mixing pits (one at far right). The USA fought in the First World War from April 1917 up to the end of the war in November 1918. Use of chemical weapons (which began in 1915) had become routine by this stage. The US Army's Chemical Warfare Service was formed on 28 June 1918, though the military work on chemical weapons had started in 1917. Before the war ended, over 10, 000 tons of toxic gases had been produced at the Edgewood Arsenal. Photographed for the Chemical Warfare Service on 17 June 1918.
