906. ---------------. [FIELDNER, A. C.] Recent Developments in the Production of Motor Fuels From Coal. Canadian Chem. and Met., vol. 12, April 1928, p. 99. Digest of a paper given before the Montreal Section of the Society of Chemical Industry. The 2 processes, Bergius and Fischer, are still in the semiexperimental stage, the former being about ready for actual commercial production and the latter still in the laboratory. It is predicted that the Bergius process will prove the more economical for motor fuel production from coal, while the synthesis of liquid fuels from gas will be limited to the utilization of byproduct gases and natural gas. |
