Patent:

l. The process herein described of detinning tin-scraps by means of ehlorin, which consists in dividing the quantity of chloringas required for the proper detinning into a number of approximately-equal parts and introducing these quantities at approximately equal intervals of time quickly to the material to be detinned, but in such a man- 1101' that the same is subjected for not longer than fifteen minutes of time to the uninterrupted action 01 the introduced gas-current.

2. The. process herein described of detinning tin-scraps by means of chlorin, which consists in introducing chlorin-gas successively in approximately-equal quantities alternately at different points to the interior In testimony, that I claim the foregoing as my invention, I have signed'my name in presence of tWo subscrlblng Witnesses.
