Solid fuels are converted into water gas and this into CH₄-containing gases and benzine hydrocarbons by known processes; the CH₄-containing gases are converted into illuminating gas and aromatic hydrocarbons by heating 1 time or repeatedly for a short period to above 1,000°. An antiknock motor fuel is obtained by mixing the benzine hydrocarbons with the subsequently formed aromatic hydrocarbons.
