     History
    Carbo-Sil, once called National Carbon, a division of Union Carbide.

    In 1898 the Union Carbide Company was created in Virginia to manufacture calcium carbide for acetylene lighting.

    edit - the Carbo-Sil site in Niagara Falls also produced graphite that was used in the first nuclear chain reaction during the Manhatten Project. Approx. 200 drums of unknown materials and 70 pallets of unknown materials were found at the site.
