2965.     ---------------.  [RUHRCHEMIE, A.-G.]  [Synthesis of Light Hydrocarbons.]  FIAT Reel K-30, Feb. 15, 1939, frames 7,593-7,595; PB 73,587; TOM Reel 297.

        Brief report of an experiment to produce light hydrocarbons, particularly C₂H₄ and C₃H₆, from synthesis gas in a catalytic furnace having a small layer column.  Up to 3.5% C₂H₄ could be detected in the end gas, which is nearly 20-25% of the amount of hydrocarbons produced.
