Total industrial output was down by more than one per cent.

a crucial factor in Western industrial development

Industrial production increased fivefold in the same period.

There's a huge story about Northeastern industrial cities.

A harvest of the shoots would remove the toxic compounds off site to be burned or composted to recover the metal for industrial uses.

In some industrial regions, heavily laden wagons, with flanged wheels, were being hauled by horses along metal rails; and the stationary steam engine was puffing in the factory and mine.

Steam became the motive force of the Industrial Revolution as coal and iron ore were the raw materials.

In Britain one of the most dramatic changes of the Industrial Revolution was the harnessing of power.

It had over 2,000 apartment complexes, a great market, a large number of industrial workshops, an administrative center, a number of massive religious edifices, and a regular grid pattern of streets and buildings.

The idea that early humans could have had such a major effect…well, I’m just not sure we can compare it with the industrial age.

This was also the time the Industrial Revolution, which brought a tremendous increase in the use of fossil fuels such as coal.

Water circulated through heat reservoirs in this temperature range is able to extract enough heat to warm residential, commercial, and industrial spaces.

Therefore, even without any industrial production of heat, an urban area tends to be warmer than the countryside that surrounds it.

Dutch peasants were able to remain unaffected by this crisis for a long time because they had specialized in dairy farming industrial crops, and horticulture.

For the first time industrial waste, such as ash from the soap-boilers, was collected in the cities and sold in the country as artificial fertilizer.

In addition to dairy farming and cultivating industrial crops, a third sector of the Dutch economy reflected the way in which agriculture was being modernized-horticulture.

The peasants specialized in livestock husbandry and dairy farming as well as in cultivating industrial crops and fodder crops: flax, madder, and rape were grown, as were tobacco, hops, and turnips.

We can put these filters into waste pipes from industrial processes, and use the filters to trap heavy metals, like mercury and zinc.

As the country shifted from an agricultural to an industrial base, political power shifted too.

If there are major industrial areas along the outskirts, pollutants are carried into the heat of town, where they tend to concentrate.

Additional city heat is given off at night (and during the day) by vehicles and factories, as well as by industrial and domestic heating and cooling units.

The urban heat island is due to industrial and urban development.

A precursor to the Industrial Revolution was a revolution in agricultural techniques.

Great Britain’s better-developed banking and credit system also helped speed the industrial progress, as did the fact that it was the home of an impressive array of entrepreneurs and inventors.

Britain’s relatively stable government also helped create an atmosphere conducive to industrial progress.

Eventually they found their way to the cities or mining communities and provided the human power upon which the Industrial Revolution was built.

Great Britain also had rich deposits of coal that fed the factories springing up in industrial and consumer goods.

The Industrial Revolution had several roots, one of which was a commercial revolution that, beginning as far back as the sixteenth century, accompanied Europe’s expansion overseas.

In the early Middle Ages, Europe imported an industrial process from China, which turned almost any kind of fibrous material into pulp that was then spread in sheets.

In the industrial area of Birmingham, the situation was reversed: 13 percent of pale forms but 27.5 percent of dark forms were recaptured.

This phenomenon, an increase in the frequency of dark-colored mutants in polluted areas, is known as industrial melanism.

Coal from industry released large amounts of black soot into the environment, but the increase of the dark-colored forms was not due to genetic mutations caused by industrial pollution.

One of the most thoroughly analyzed examples of natural selection in operation is the change in color that has occurred in certain populations of the peppered moth, Biston betularia, in industrial regions of Europe during the past 100 years.

Indeed, in this influential book Toward a New Architecture, the Swiss architect Le Corbusier illustrated his text with photographs of American factories and grain storage silos, as well as ships, airplanes, and other industrial objects.

So you can see petroleum is essential to today’s industrial society.

In turn, population growth in agricultural areas triggered industrial development in cities such as Chicago, Davenport (Iowa), and Minneapolis, for the new settlers needed lumber for fences and houses and mills to grind wheat into flour.

Industrial societies had figured out ways to combine large and growing cities with population growth, a development that would soon spread to other parts of the world.

The industrial revolution modified the whole structure of English society.

Industrial machinery and equipment

For example, the pharmaceutical industry grows filamentous fungi in large quantities in the lab, like to produce the antibiotic penicillin, the drug company grows the fungus penicillium, and after the penicillin is extracted, these dead penicillium filaments, we can use the chitin in their cell walls to make industrial filters to adsorb heavy metals.

They are the major industrial employers.

The region remains the country's industrial heartland.
