In the early 1700s, Abraham Darby's experiments led to the development of a more efficient method for smelting iron using coke instead of charcoal. This innovation significantly reduced the cost of iron production and increased its availability, contributing to the Industrial Revolution. Darby's techniques laid the groundwork for the iron and steel industries, enabling the mass production of iron goods and infrastructure. His work marked a pivotal shift in Metallurgy, enhancing both the quality and the quantity of iron produced.
