Walt Donner and Jim Cook with Gas Chromatograph
- 1960
Walt Donner worked in Advanced Technology Operations at Beckman Instruments and on projects for the National Aeronautical and Space Administration (NASA). Jim Cook was presumably a Beckman Instruments employee who worked with the gas chromatograph.
Beckman Instruments entered the gas chromatograph business in 1956 with the acquisition of the successful Watts Manufacturing Company. Later that year, Beckman Instruments produced its first gas chromatograph, the GC-1, which was intended for laboratory use. Shortly after, Beckman Instruments produced a line of gas chromatographs for industrial use, which offered both automation and customization. These instruments were used by the petroleum industry and in the fight against air pollution.
