Description d’un fourneau de cuisine construit de manière à pouvoir y préparer tout espèce d’aliment sans être incommodé par la vapeur du charbon, par la fumée du bois ou par l’odeur désagréable qui se répand ordinairement dans les cuisines lorsqu’on y fait griller de la viande ou du poisson… Paris : Bachelier, 1821.
Tiré à part des Annales de l’industrie nationale et étrangère. Chimiste et inventeur de nombreux procédés industriels, Jean-Pierre-Joseph d’Arcet fut nommé en 1810 au Conseil d’hygiène publique et de salubrité de Paris. En 1818, lors de recherches pour l’assainissement des ateliers de doreurs, il constate que « l’insalubrité de nos cuisines était la cause d’accidens beaucoup plus fréquents et peut-être plus graves que ne sont ceux que les doreurs éprouvent dans les ateliers mal construits… ». Dès lors, il s’emploie à y remédier, et produit en 1821 au Conseil de salubrité un mémoire sur cette question. Jugé d’un grand intérêt, ce mémoire est rapidement publié dans les Annales de l’industrie… avant de faire l’objet de ce tiré à part. Vicaire, 249 (à la date erronée de 1822).
