WHAT DOES ATHANOR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Athanor

In alchemy, an athanor is a furnace used to provide a uniform and constant heat for alchemical digestion. The athanor was also called Piger Henricus, because it was chiefly used in slower operations, and because when once filled with coals, it keeps burning a long time. For this reason the Greeks referred to it as "giving no trouble", as it did not need to be continually attended. It was also called the Philosophical furnace, Furnace of Arcana, or popularly, the Tower furnace.

Definition of athanor in the English dictionary
