Henry Bessemer
Sir Henry Bessemer was an English inventor, whose steelmaking would become the most important technique for steelmaking in the 19th century for almost a hundred years from 1856 to 1950. He also played an important role in the establishment of the city of Sheffield as a major industrial center. Bessemer tried to reduce the cost of making steel for military weapons and developed a system for blowing air through molten iron to remove impurities. It makes steel fabrication easier, faster and cheaper, while revolutionizing structural engineering. As one of the most important inventors of the Second Industrial Revolution, Bessemer also made more than 100 other inventions in the fields of iron, steel and glass. Unlike most inventors, he was successful in implementing his own projects and benefiting financially from their success.
