                  There are enough sources of coke-oven gas in Belgium to provide 20% of the gasoline requirements in the form of MeOH.  Technically and commercially the Bergius and Fischer-Tropsch processes are capable of producing fuels suitable for any admixture with natural gasoline or for replacement of natural gasoline.  The choice between these 2 methods depends on the nature of the coal available and the means of producing H₂.  Operating conditions in these 2 processes and some recent developments are noted.
