Woulff bottles, sometimes spelled Woulfe bottles, have a long and important role in chemistry. They were developed in the 18th century by Peter Woulfe, an Irish chemist, and became a laboratory staple for gas washing, absorption, and filtration tasks. Their multiple necks allow gases to be bubbled through liquids to remove impurities or to absorb chemicals, making them invaluable for various experimental processes.
