Frederick G. Keyes
Frederick George Keyes (June 24, 1885 – April 14, 1976) was an American physical chemist.[1] [2] Keyes was most notable for inventing a method to sterilize milk using ultraviolet rays, and discovering that ultraviolet rays kill germs.[3] According to the National Academies Press, Keyes was also notable for "advances in thermodynamics, equations of state of gases, and thermodynamic properties, in particular liquid water and steam".[2]
Keyes received a B.Sc. degree from the University of Rhode Island and an M.Sc. and Ph.D. from Brown University.
Keyes was head of the department of chemistry at MIT,[1] and was a member of the National Academy of Sciences,[1][2] the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society.[4][5]
