Jean-Pierre or Jan Pieter Minckelers (also Minkelers, Minckeleers) (1748-1824) was a Dutch academic and inventor of coal gasification and illuminating gas. Minckelers was the son of Anna Margaretha Denis en Laurens Michael Minckelers, a pharmacist in Maastricht. After finishing Latin school in his hometown at the age of 15, he went to the University of Leuven (French: Louvain), where he studied theology and philosophy at the Collegium Falconis. In 1771 he became a deacon and the next year he became professor of natural philosophy. From 1778 Minckelers focussed on the study of gasses. He worked closely with Jan Frans Thijsbaert (Jean-François Thysbaert; 1736–1825), director of the school of experimental physics at the university, and it was under Thysbaert's direction that he did his experi

  • Jean-Pierre Minckelers (Maastricht, 2 de desembre de 1748 - Maastricht, 4 de juliol de 1824) va ser un acadèmic holandès i inventor de gasificació i il·luminació de carbó. Als setze anys passà a Lovaina, on estudià teologia i filosofia en el Col·legi "Faucon", del qual en fou professor l'any 1772, ensenyant filosofia natural. En aquella època l'atenció científica es dirigia a l'obtenció del millor gas per als globus, i per aquest estudi es nomenà un comitè del qual formà part Minckelers. Aquest publica una Mémoire sur l'air inflamable tiré de différentes substances (Lovaina, 1784), en la que resumia els seus estudis que resultaren excel·lents, ja que a banda que el seu gas feia pujar els globus ràpidament, el portà a aplicar-lo a la il·luminació.
