Standard develops peacetime' use for atomic energy
Salt Lake Pipe Line Company (a Stand
ard Oil Company of California sub
sidiary) is completing s 366-mile pipe
line between Salt Lake City and Pasco,
Wash. The line will serve many points
with a variety of petroleum products.
HIGH OCTANE GASOLINl -. " ffifjJ&Jte ' - tef'-4 I &pi
How could these products be kept sep
arated... products ranging from diesel
fuel to high-octane gasoline... as they
follow each other 'through this com
mon carrier line? Atomic energy has
effiaeody solved this problem
Each time a change to a new product
is made, very minute amounts of radio
active tracer material are put into the
line . . . tracer material prepared espe
cially for this use in the Government
atomic pile at Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
i
MJiJkJ
Using a Geiger Counter operators at the destination tell
exactly when the radioactive tracer arrives in the pipe...'
and they can switch the new product into the proper tank.
Tho tracer Is so dilated in each batch that only the record
log of a Geiger Counter can tell you it's there. Its rsdio
, activity will be far less than that of s luminous watch dial.
This is one of the first commercial uses of atomic energy
in American industry. But it won't be, the last. -
Our scientists . . . and those of other companies . . . are fast
learning how to make this great development work for
peaceful purposes. You'll see the results of this knowledge
soon ... not only in improved methods of transportation
but in new products. i
