REPORT ON INVESTIGATIONS BY FUELS AND
LUBRICANTS TEAM AT THE BRABAG WORKS AT TROGLITZ-ZEITZ. Reported
by: J.F.Ellis and J.R.Morley. The Brabag Works is designed
to produce petrol, diesel oil, wax and lubricating oil by the
hydrogenation of brown coal-tar. The necessary hydrogen is
produced by the gasification of crude coke (brown coal low temperature
coke) with oxygen in Winkler generators. |

STICKSTOFFWERK-HIBERNIA WANNE-EICKEL-RUHR.
Recovery of Hydrocarbons from Coke. Reported by: H.Bardgett.
Five page report on the investigation made to obtain information
relating to the recovery of hydrocarbons from coke-oven gas. The
Company operated at process for the recovery of hydrocarbons from coke
oven gas by liquefaction and for the production of synthetic ammonia and
ammonium fertilizers. The plant has a capacity for treating about
800,000 Nm3 of coke oven gas per day, and can fix about 150 tons of
mitrogen per day, including nitrogen from air separation. A flow
sheet of the process is show in an attached diagram. |

COKE-OVEN INSTALLATIONS OF REICHWERKE A.G.,
HERMANN GORING WERKE AT WATENSTEDT NEAR BRUNSWICK. Reported by:
H.Bardgett. The main purpose of the ovens is to provide coke for
the 16 blast furnaces of the adjacent iron and steel plants. Eight
of these modern furnaces are of 6.8 meters hearth diameter and are rated
at 350 tons of iron per day, and eight are of diameter 7.2 meters and
are rated at 650 tons per day. The coke ovens were selected as
targets for investigation mainly because it was understood that weekly
caking coals form upper Silesia were utilized in the production of blast
furnace coke and also because the installation comprised different types
of ovens operating on similar coal. It was hoped that the
results obtained on the plant might throw light on the relative
performance of the ovens. The management would prefer, in order to
make god coke, to use only Ruhr coals but they found it possible to make
good coke from blends containing up to 30% Upper Silesian coal. |

NORDSTERN COKE-OVEN PLANT GELSENKIRCHNER
BERGWERKS A.G. Reported by: R. Neuman and H. H. Bates.
The plant consists of 4 batteries of Still 6 meters high ovens, No. 1
being built in 1928, No. 2 in 1930 and Nos. 3 and 4 in 1938. It
was the largest privately owned plant in Germany at that time. In
addition it has a number of novel features not found else where.
Quite a lot of apparatus was intact although the buildings were
completely destroyed. The low pressure benzole scrubbers and
ammonia washers were badly shaken from their foundations. The
exhausters and high pressure apparatus was intact. The gas holders
were destroyed. The steel work and mains were tangled mass and
this in itself was sufficient to put the plant out of commission for
some time. The Ethylene and Methane plant was destroyed. The
main plant, by product plant, coal handling plant and batteries are
described with a flow sheet of the process included. Five page report. |
