    Ignition, also known as incineration, is the process of strongly heating organic substances until the carbonaceous matter burns and an inorganic residue is left behind. Crucibles and incinerators are commonly used apparatus for ignition. Methods of ignition include using a heat lamp, copper drying oven, or Parrish's gas furnace. Applications include standardizing organic substances and crude drugs, burning medical waste, and determining purity and impurities in organic salts and drugs.

    APPARATUS

     Crucibles:
         Crucibles are cup-shaped vessels
    made with such material that they will
    stand extremely high temperature.
     Incinerators:
          Ignition incinerators are used in hospital pharmacy to burn infectious waste.

    Fig: Incinerator
    METHODS/LAYOUT:
    • IGNITION WITH HEAT LAMP: 
    Process:

     The filter containing the precipitate is folded, laid in the crucible and heated
    slowly until the filter is reduced to ash.
     When cooled it is placed in the desiccator. 
    Via Copper
    Drying
    Oven:
    Process:
     It is a single walled copper box placed on a stand with a Bunsen burner placed
    below .
     An opening is present for the insertion of thermometer.
     The ovens are constructed with double walls to admit filling with water.
     After process of ignition the substance is allowed to cool in a dessicator. 
    • via PARRISH'S GAS FURNACE:
    Structure:

     Parrish’s furnace is a cast of iron open at the bottom.


     A brass burner of two rings passes into the body of the furnace near the bottom.
     Rings are perforated for the ignition by jet of gas.
    Examples:

    1 2 3 4
    Potash:Its ignition Ferric acid: it is Pyrophosphoric Ammonio-
    brings it into state converted into acid:it ignites at magnesium
    of carbonate. ferric oxide. 213̊C phosphate
    Applications:

     For the standardization of organic substances and crude drugs by means of


    gravimetric analysis.
     In hospital pharmacy to burn syringes
     In sprays 
     To determine impurities of organic salts of alkali metals ( such as tartarates,
    citrate, benzoate & many drugs.)
     Purity of drugs is determined by its ash content.
