Ignacy Łukasiewicz is commonly referred to as the founder of the oil industry. Most people associate him with the invention of the kerosene lamp. He was also, however, an accomplished pharmacist, an advocate of Polish independence, social activist, and philanthropist. It is worth recalling that he was the cofounder of the world's first oil mine and distillery. He made a lasting mark on the economic history of the world. Łukasiewicz was not only the inventor of the oil lamp; his achievements were broader. He operated in difficult times and had to overcome many private, political and economic adversities. Yet they did not break his attitude, which was unfailing. He proved that being an innovator and an entrepreneur is not incompatible with maintaining admirable social convictions. What can we, living in the 21st century, learn from Ignacy Łukasiewicz? This article brings to the fore several qualities of his that are well are worth noting. It aims to present the values that characterize the person of Ignacy Łukasiewicz - values, the emulation of which, would serve the present generation well.

Petroleum was of little interest to analytical chemistry scholars until the mid-19th century, as they considered it unhelpful to experiment with an explosive chemical compound with niche utility value. The discovery of oil's potential is credited to Polish pharmacists Ignacy Łukasiewicz and Jan Zeh, who performed the chemical separation of oil in a pharmacy laboratory using the scientific method of fractional distillation. The isolation of the kerosene fraction from oil was exploited by Ignacy Łukasiewicz, who created an innovative design for a lamp. Lighting with cheap kerosene became the idea of the explorer, who, with the help of Polish investors, organised the first oil mine and refinery in 1854, laying the foundation for the oil mining and petrochemical industry. Łukasiewicz's lamp, entering mass use, initiated global demand for oil. The accounts of Polish and Austrian historians on the pioneering role of Łukasiewicz in this regard support the arguments from the field of physics and analytical chemistry developed by Wojciech Roeske, who demystifies the amateurish, intuitive methods of oil purification of Łukasiewicz's predecessors, documents the merits of the Pole as a pioneer – an ancestor of the oil industry derived from the tradition of Polish pharmacy.

PL
Gorlice, ul. Węgierska. W 1854 r. zapłonęła tu pierwsza na świecie uliczna lampa naftowa – wynalazek Ignacego Łukasiewicza. Około 120 lat później w ulicy tej wybudowano betonowy kanał sanitarny, który funkcjonował przez dziesięciolecia. W 2019 r. nie było już jednak śladu po lampach naftowych, a żywotność kanału dobiegała końca. Konieczna okazała się więc renowacja, by możliwe było przywrócenie funkcji użytkowej rurociągu.
