washing of gases, known as Liebig's
bulbs. The gas enters m , presses on the
absorptive liquid, and passes from m into b , c , d , and e consecutively, and escapes
through f . Fig. 40.—Geisler's potash bulbs. The gas enters
at a , and passes through a solution of potash
in the lower bulbs, where the carbonic anhydride
is absorbed, and the gas escapes from b .
The lower bulbs are arranged in a triangle, so
that the apparatus can stand without support. 116
