Which Nobel Peace Prize winner wanted to extract gold from sea water?

The Nobel prize winner who tried to extract gold from sea water to pay Germany's post WW1 debts was the chemist Fritz Haber. His main contribution to chemistry was the Haber process, which fixated then-rare nitrogen in the air for industrial use. This allowed for the creation of artificial fertilizers and easier creation of explosives.
Please note that he won the Nobel prize for CHEMISTRY, not peace. See the Related Link for "Wikipedia: Fritz Haber" to the right. Haber's real claims to fame are very different.
