Bone digester?
Under history, Denis Papin is said to have built a "bone digester". However, the page about him talks about a "steam digester", which seems a much more likely name. Could somebody more knowing than me please fix? --16:25, 29 April 2006 User:85.166.246.162
- From what I've read, either term will do; word for word some sources state that Papin's contraption was a: "steam digester used for softening bones". According to my understanding, from a few different sources, people in the olden days wanted to be able to cook bones for dietary purposes. Hence, they built bone, or "steam", digesters to soften bones. Essentially, they were pressure cookers. They may have gone by either name in the past; but bone digesters is referenced more often.--Sadi Carnot 19:22, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- In Lavoisier's 1787 Elements of Chemistry, pg. 28, he refers to it as Papin's digester. --Sadi Carnot 06:58, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
