Document - BILL ASHMAN COLLECTION: ALFLOC SYSTEM
Eleven page article titled Water Softening in the Boiler by the 'Alfloc' System. This is an internal method of conditioning boiler feed water and the use of coagulants designed to prevent scale formation in the boiler and accessory plant, to reduce corrosion to a minimum, and further to provide for those conditions in the boiler water which from present experience are believed to prevent the occurrence of caustic ombrittlement. Different chemicals were used to suit different types of water in different areas. Items discussed are: Summary, Introduction, External treatment, Internal Treatment, General Principles of the 'Alfloc' Internal Treatment, Precipitation of the Scale-forming Salts, Temporary Hardness, Permanent Hardness, Conditioning of the Precipitate - Floc Formation, Efficient Control of the Concentration of both Dissolved and Suspended Solids by Blowdown, Prevention of Corrosion, Testing and Control, The 'Alfloc' Reagents for Internal Treatment, 'Alfloc' Liquors, 'Alfloc' Briquettes, Alfloc' Powders, Methods of Application, Liquors - Stationary boilers and Locomotive boilers, Briquettes - Stationary boilers and Locomotive boilers, Powders, Blowdown, Sludge, Caustic Embrittlement, Control of 'Alfloc' System, Cost and Economies of 'Alfloc' Internal Treatment and 'Alfloc' Water Treatment Service. Listed on page 11 are ICIANZ Sales Offices the Australian States. Between pages 7 and 8 is a page of diagrams. They are: Showing method of feeding liquors to the feed tank of boilers for 'Alfloc' internal treatment, typical arrangement of pressure vessel and typical arrangement of 'Alfloc' by-pass feeder.sciences, instruments - general, scalebuoy, bill ashman collection, alfloc system, imperial chemical industries limited alkali division, alfloc liquors, alfloc briquettes, alfloc powders, imperial chemical industries of australia and new zealand limited, elder smith & co limited, chemical & textile agencies pty ltd -

digital copy, Ballarat East High School Magazine 1960, 1960
School History: In February, 1955, Ballarat East High School opened in Hopetoun Street, in the vacated weatherboard buildings of the Girls’ Secondary School. In 1956, however, the School moved to its present site in Fussell Street, but because of the lack of space, Woodwork and Cookery classes were still held at Hopetoun Street. Since then there has been steady progress. The original building was extended, more classrooms and a library being built. A Domestic Science block was completed in 1957. Later, as mentioned elsewhere, sheltersheds, basketball courts, a bidycle shed and a canteen were provided for the pupils from funds raised by the Parents’ Association. Where there were previously bare areas of clayey soil we now have asphalt paths and neat gardens. Shrubs were planted, and seats, painted in the School colours, were places around the asphalted areas.

The students from Bulla Primary School were taken on a nature excursion to a nearby nature park as part of their scientific and environmental studies. They were studying the number and types of insects that could be found in the plants and water in the area. The park ranger then asked them to identify any insects on the chart that they found. Nature and environmental studies give the students of the importance of caring for the environment and are included in their science work.A non-digital coloured photograph of a group of children sitting on the ground in front of a teacher who is holding up a chart featuring common insects.

Artwork, other - Ceramic mural, John Gilbert, 'Enigmatic Land' by John Gilbert, 1973, 1973
ENIMATIC LAND OF BIRDS THAT SING FLOWERS FROMS SEEDS THAT SPRING OF REPTILES AND FISHES CREATURES FROM THE BEGINNING SUN AND MAN AND SCIENCE THE SYMBOLS THAT SILENTLY BUILD AND CHANGE IN COOL AND WARM YOU ARE THERE AND HERE OF YESTERDAY NOW THE SPLITTING EARTH MURAL BY JOHN GILBERT 1973John GILBERT (1935- ) Born Albury, New South Wales John Gilbert worked as a teacher while completing a Certificate of Art at the Technical College in Marlborough, before moving to Ballarat in 1958. He studied at the Ballarat Technical Art School, a division of the Ballarat School of Mines (1960-1961) receiving a Diploma of Art; and Croydon College of Art, London. Gilbert was a Senior Lecturer at the Ballarat Institute of Advanced Education (now Federation University) Art Department until his retirement in the late 1970s. In John Gilbert's Mount Helen studio he produced work marked with an incised 'Gilbert'. He had acquired a concern for form and an interest in sculpture from his teacher Neville Bunning, and from the British potter Hans Coper, whom he visited in 1968. He established two potteries in Ballarat , the Edinburgh Pottery (1972-2005) located within the Sovereign Hill precinct, and the Old Ballarat Pottery (1973-1994) located in the Old Ballarat Village opposite Sovereign Hill. This item is part of the Federation University Art Collection. The Art Collection features over 2000 works and was listed as a 'Ballarat Treasure' in 2007.A large ceramic mural by John Gilbert commissioned for the wall of the E.J. Barker Library. The mural features brown and green glaze with features of indigo. The work has no particular pictorial representation. It is an arrangement of colour and form, designed for enjoyment rather than to analyse. The theme relates to the development of the Universe through basic symbols such as plant forms, fish, birds and to mans development through symbols of science and engineering. The outer edge is symbolic of earths crust being peeled away to reveal science and nature. The mural depicts the changing of seasons from Winter to Summer (left to right). The mural was completed at John Gilbert's Slate Gallery studio, Mount Helen, and took eight months to make.gilbert, artwork, john gilbert, art, ballarat school of mines, mural, ballarat institute of advanced education, ballarat pottery, ceramics, old ballarat pottery, edinburgh pottery -
