GenereJ .y, the PIN standards observed in West Germany were also in force mr xuet
and lubricants in Fast Germany. They could, however,, not always be ittaired tecaum a of
raw material difficulties. In ouch cases, plants in last Germany would apply with
the coMetent production manager of the main administration for a special
authorization which generally was granted. Such authorizations were issued ty
the Liquid .Fuels Main Administration of the State Secretariat for Chemistry
Plants which, up to late March 1953, received authorizations included the
Teerverarbeitungswerke (tar processing plants) Webau, Koepsen,, Rositz, and
Goelzau which were to produce gasoline with a sulphur content up to 2 pare. nt. wut
a Conradson test up to 0.3 percent, the VEST Mineraloelwerk Iuetzkendorf wh: ch
was to produce a gasoline boiling at 100 degrees of Celsius on condition that
this fuel be mixed with gasoline produced by Synthesewerk Schwarzheide SAG,, and
the ueitz and Luetzkendorf plants which were to produce a Diesel oil with v+
boil.e 2
maximum raised from 360 to 375 degrees of Celsius
All tar disti.Ll.ing plants were instructed to mix at the ratio of 1 to I tb
Diese? oil they produced with a light Diesel oil produced by the I3oehieri eirant"
Since this measure made it possible for the tar distilwing plants to use p:ra.ffit
oils and light oils for their production, the Diesel oil production could '::e
increased by about 18,000 tone per year,
Almost the total gasoline production of the tar processing; plant was mJ x.e:n wz-Lh
so-called 11.ght gasoline produced by the Schwarzheide plants This method was
adopted because solution gasoline could not be sold. Each ton of solution
gasoline produced by SAG Synthesewerk Schwarzheide was paid by the State va:_.uls 550
eastmarks o
