This lesser known aspect of Humboldt's activities is related to his work as a Prussian mining officer in the principalities of Ansbach and Bayreuth between 1792 and 1797. In assessments and reports Humboldt commented on furnace designs and discussed the effectiveness of firing auxiliaries for high-temperature processes. He analysed the causes of the failure of burnings and meltings and made suggestions for their improvement. Various alterations that were carried out during repair work on existing furnaces at the ceramic manufactory in Rheinsberg and the porcelain manufactory in Bruckberg were initiated by Humboldt. Furthermore, it is likely that he was a driving force behind the decision to build a two-storey circular kiln at the Royal Porcelain Factory in Berlin. His reports are explained by means of sketches.}, language = {de} }
