Manufacturing Cost Data on Artificial Ice

"Manufacturing Cost Data on Artificial Ice" by Otto Luhr is a scientific exploration into the economics and processes of making artificial ice, probably from the beginning of the 1900s. This publication explores the detailed breakdown of expenses, such as labor, electricity, and upkeep, involved in manufacturing artificial ice versus harvesting natural ice. It argues that the featured ice-making system not only cuts costs but also improves hygiene. The authors highlight how their methods could change how ice is used commercially by reducing labor needs and increasing sanitation. The systematic look at cost factors and practical advice on making operations more efficient serves to show the financial upside of artificial ice production to those thinking about investing or starting a business in the ice market.
