1557. ---------------. [INDUSTRIAL CHEMIST AND CHEMICAL MANUFACTURER.] Synthetic Oil in Japan – an Attempt to Gain Self-Sufficiency. Vol. 23, 1947, pp. 333-340.

Complete plants at the end of the war numbered 2 for hydrogenation, 5 for Fischer-Tropsch, and 14 for low-temperature carbonization. The output of synthetic oil, excluding Manchuria, for 1944 was 113,000 kl., of which 770 kl. were hydrogenation products, 18,000 kl. Fischer-Tropsch oils, and 95,000 kl. low-temperature carbonization oils. Outputs are discussed in detail.
