Plant ##2 was functioning well and in the air analysis installation, the two 02 apparatuses 1 and 3 were in action. After overcoming great difficulties in procuring material it was possible to put coal drying installation 5b in action on 16 February 1949. Coal drying installations 5a and 5c had to undergo considerable repairs. The latter is still being repaired{. The newly-constructed generator gas installation 3k started functioning on 15 July 1949, From the end of August until the end of October,inatallation 3n was being repaired, while installation 3t was functioning until 4 December 1949.. Sygas installation 3c was undergoing repairs from 6 January to 31 March 1949 and from 7 May to 27 July 1949. Installation 3d was undergoing repairs from 31 March to 22 May 1949 and from 1 September to 28 October 1949. On 5 Decemb r 1949, it had to be put out of action for repairs. Plant #2 functioned throughout the year without any major disturbances. The blower to increase pressure was started in August in Building 120 and the w urifi.cation plant began to function in Building 120 A gas cooler and a heater were installed in Building 15, thus increasing to a great extent she production of gas oil. Synthetic output increased during the last months of 1949, fe In spite of great difficulties in obtaining basic and raw materials, the target figure for the air analysis installation had been fulfilled on 14 December 1949? Thanks to the hard work and industry of workers, technicians and chemists, the target was, in facts exceeded,-despite the long delay in October and November, caused by the failure of the large air compressor,, :x.07 Through improved methods in training workers, it was possible to lengthen the lives of plants and machines. Considerable delays were thus avoided and consumption of coal was reduced from 2,030 Kg ItBK/1OOO NO Sygas in 1948 to 1605 kg RBK/1000 I& in 1949. Losses in RBK had dropped 9% by the end of the year. Production of sulphur increased 21.,5% in comparison with 1.948, in " .Casks of the, main laboratory were as follows: Research in routine matters e.g. output of primary products etc. Examination of all,;pipes 'boilers and waste water channels Special investigations e.g, faults in connection with gas productions installat' b ao il Rest r --- ??ti??,..acs~ 4-u ac-u v~na-'uuiut ne$ o er housesetc., research in metal etc. Research leading to increased knowledge of primary products. Further synthetic research and processing of primary products through cracking. t> Preparation of normal solutions and revival of used up chemicals. '?, Effective laboratory distillation column: have been installed so that it possible to estimate with great accuracy the composition of products up 1;o a boiling point of about 280?? - Failure in the supply of gas hindered synthetic experiments to a considerable extent although it was possible to establish, among other things, that a mild regeneration of the 1BKontakte't was possible by treatment with ammonia. This fact should be of interest in connection with synthetic research and the mechanisms of heterogeneous catalysers. l.!.., The main laboratory cannot be considered large enough for present require=- FF'.ennts..

Great difficulty was experienced in obtaining the necessary chemicals and apparatus and much improvisation had to be resorted to. The laboratory was also given the task of carrying out an experiment with a view to extracting hydrogen sulphide from muddy wage, This experiment is considered to have succeeded from the chemical point of view. .'CONFIDENTIAL P"aPP/CONTRO?. a U,S.
