there was shortage of useable iron .
Iron is drawn out from ore pure
liquid metal by process called
smelting .
10. • For many year charcoal was used for for the
smelting
• Charcoal its own problem :-
• It was too fragile to transport across long
distance
• It could not generate high temperatures .
• This problem was sought by the family of iron
master THE Darby’s of Shropshire
11. ROLE OF DARBY
• Abraham Darby . This was blast furnace that
would use coke, which could generate high
temperatures coke was derived from coal by
removing the sulphur and impurities
• The second Darby developed wrought iron .Henry
Cort designed the puddling furnace and the rolling
mill
12. • the third Darby built the first iron bridge in the
world in coalbrookdale spanning the river
severn
14. CANALS
• Canals were initially

as well as the market
17. STEAM SOURCE
• Water as hydraulic
power had been the
prime source of
energy for centuries .
but it had been
limited to certain
area ‘s and seasons
and by the speed of
the flow of water
18. • now it was used differently steam
power provided pressure at high
temperature there enabled the use
of broad range of machinery
• This meant that steam power was
only power of energy that was
reliable and inexpensive enough the
manufacture machinery itself
19. Contribution of James watt
• James watt build
steam engine in a69
.His invention convert
the steam engine from
being near pump into
a prime mover
capable of providing
energy to power
machines in factor
20. Worker’s life changed
