The restoration of the ool aeamical industz7 :1u tho' USSR has pro eacd
repictI, and the output in 7L950 elosely approached that of 1940# when the
industry achieved its maxim= production0 The Soviet. cok& t ical pastry
in 1950 produced approximately one-third of that in the United States. The
plants in the Donbas region will probably be restored to their prewar capacity
by the end of 1952, end thoso in the Dnieper region by the and of 1954,
From 1950 through 1953 the output of cote ch eals in the USSR probably
win income by about 48 poreent? This Increase will be due to restoration
of the plants in the South, to expansion of existing p' ants in the Urals 'and
East Siberia., and to the installation of new facilities in con etion with
steel mks now under. constracti,on0

Coke a i,.oals are the 17-products derived in the pro ti.on of coked A
study of the individual plants producing coke-c erdeal.s in the USSR raveais
that before 1927 the only domestic production of coke h .sal s was a wall
trickle from the prerevolutionary installation at Ktovo, consisting of the
batteries of Tr"ronch Koppers eves with by aroducte plante The remainder
of the coke, r+e ired for pig iron production, t produced by nine Ala
tions in the Donbas region, none of which z overed bywproducts? (For the
production of individual co foal plants in the USSR,, see AppetAlxp )
One of the f. rst steps taken by the Soviets in embarking during the alddle
3.9200s on the i trial rehabilitation and devel nt of the USSR was the
utilisation of the vast coal resources In the c .eeation of a large a ca1
and steel industry. Considerable foreign .eipment, and engi erine skill wore
enlisted, a in 1928 three colco-chadeal plants were p? Into tioaza two
in the Donbas (Vorochiovek and Kedievka) and one in the Crimea Keroh) o
During the period of the First Five Year Plan (1928-32) intensive efforts were
directed toward expansion of the newly created i mt ', and by 1932 nine addi-
tional plats had been put into operation. Five of these plants were located
in the Donbao (Gorlovka., lI ake? vka, Stal,ino, cheiikovo, and Krematorsk), t ae
were located in the Dnieper region (Dnepropetrovsk , Zapore?~, Dneprodzerz1 k
and one tam lacsatod in the Urals (Magnitogorsk). During this period the Soviets

developed a by-product battery of their own, called the Soviet Kopp s, and
begaan to ma=facture parts for thin battery and its chemical plants e U
of the plants put into operation during this period were built with Soviet
Koppers batteries, with the exception of Gorlovka (Geramn Koppers) :
Magnitogorsk (US Koppers), and possibly Dnepropatrovak (type unknwsn).
At this time, hover, not all of the parts for the. Soviet Koppers battery
were Soviet-ma. actured, Thus, at the end of 1932, a total of 13 coke-
ch nical plants were in cporation0 The production of coke -chemicals in
1932 is rather difficult to assess because of the rapidly expanding status
of the industry at that time. The 1932 production estivate (see Table 2)
represents the maxim= output attainable, Act l production was undoubtedly
much lower bemuse of normal operating difficulties that would have been
encountered in starting up. the the cal plants.

the period of the Second Five Year Plan (1933-37), seven more
ookehemical plants were inssta.]led; two in the Donbas (Mariupol,,
Konata ntinovka), one in the Datoper region (Krivoi Rog), one in the Urals
(Oubekha), and cane in West Siberia (Sta linsk) . In addition, the city
gas plants of Moscow and Leningrad with their coke-chemical plants probably
wer Installed during this period. Including the two city gas plants., a
total of 20 coke-chemical plants ware in operation by 1937, and production
of coko-chemicals had increased by an estimated 300 percent during, the 5-
year period. (For an estimate of the production of cokehei a in .937see Table 2.)
During the period of the Third Five Year I (193 02), one new plant
at Tagil In the Urals was put into operation. The peak Soviet production
of a okea-chemicals was attained in 1940, and output during that year registered
an Increase of at least 23. percent over 1937 Undoubtedly production would
have continued to increase and probably more new plants would have been
installed , but World War 11 intervened, halting progress in the industry. 4.1
Prior to the German invasion, 21 coke-chemical plants were operating in the
USSR. The Gap advance in 1940-41 caused the sate or eventual, des? ruc-
tion of the 14oscow.and Leningrad gas plants and the 14 plants in the South,
resulting in a loss of about 71 percent of the totasl production of coke-
chemicals and leaving only 5 plants in operation. War me shortages of coke-
chemicals were alleviated by large Lend- eas shipments of toluol (n3'--8U
short tons)., phenol (33,594 tons), TILT (1,39,,186 torn), picric acid (1, ),.
and smaller quantities of cresols:, a nthzacene, various intenwdiateas, and
finished products., including large quantities of ammitione (For the
eat mated production of coke-chemicals In 19/,0 and 1943,, see Table 20 )

Following the expulsion of the German Arzw from Soviet territory, re-
construction of the coke-chemical plants In the Donbas was begun 3hmediate,y-. f

there probably was a small outpUG 01 um p a e,

amount of these coke-chemicals compared to the total met output was probably
almost negligible. It is certain that the plants in the Dnieper region did
not contribute to 1947 productions

calculating the total 1949 Soviet output, it vas assumed that by then' the
Donbas plants had boon sufficiently restored to allow the recovery of coke-
the icals equivalent to approx mat 50 percent of the maximum, practical yield
from the coal processed. It was also assumed that the plants in the Dnieper
region did not produce any eel is chemicals in 1949. In calculating the total
1950 Soviet output, it was asuwned that the Donbas plants and the Dnieper
region plants would over a quantity of cokes cht cals equivalent to t roxi-
matey 75 percent and 25 percent, respectively, of the m m practical yields
/from the coal.con a in the coki process* 6Q ~Lfx~6
The production of coke-ebmAca1s for the years 1951, 19520 and 1953 (see
Table 3) has been forecast on the basis of the eat to of the output of coke
for those years as modified by the following assumptions:
aQ That, in 1951, the plants of the Donbas and of the Dnieper region will
recover cokes'-crhemicela equivalent to 90 percent. and to appro tc r. 50 per-
cent, respectively, of the mmdmn practical Yields frcan the coal processed?
bQ That, In 19528; the Donbas plants and the Dnieper plants will recover
coke-chemicals equivalent in quantity to 100 percent and to approximately 70
percent, respectively, of the m kdmun yields .Maly possible.
ca That., in 1953, .they Dnieper plants sill recover coke-ch cals a .va
lent In quantity to 90 percent of the maximm yields normally possible.

Pour batteries of coke ovens with complete by.products plants were installed
here in 1929. All plants were demolished in 1941 and were still inoperative in
1947. Aerial photographs of May 1944 show the works to be extensively damaged,
with some of the major installations destroyed. Reconstruction of the by-products
plants in the Dr:ieper region lagged behind reconstruction of the Donbas plants.,
principally because of the necessity of first reconstructing the 49Dnieprstroi"
Power Plant. Reconstruction of two coke batteries was reported as completed in
April 1948, It is assumed that the plants were not in operation in 19498 but it
is believed that in 1950 they were sufficiently restored to recover by..products
equivalent in quantity to 25 percent of the maximum yield from the coal processed.
Reconstruction of the plants in this region probably will not be completed until
about 195354.

This plant began operations in 1928 after the construction of two batteriea
were In
by Leman Koppers. In 19328 two additional Soviet Koppers with benzol ~. aulfate, and tar plants utdlizing gas. The ee Soviet
Koppers batteries were batteries of Soviet design based on gas. designs and were built under Soviet Koppers original
supervision with equipment part3,v gyp,
and partly- mantifactured by Soviet factories. A ca .ete nitrogen fizat
plant was pat into operation about 1.935.
Became of the Garman invasion, this plant was completely shed in
1941 and remained Inoperative until. 1946, when two batteries were restored. As
of 1947, all ch is't1 plants, were still inoperative, Three coke batteries were
reported as operating in October 1949, and the chemical plants were reported to
be producing benzol9 tar, and ualmown gases o The bonsai rectification plant was
probably also operating in October 1949, since the plant was reported to be pro-
ducing saccharin at that time. The coal tar distillation plant was reported to
have been put into operation in August 1949. The yield of coal tar products for
1949, therefore, has been calculated on a basis of a 4-month operation. The
yield of other products for 1949 has arbitrarily been calculated an the basis of
a nonth operation. It is believed that In 1950 the bp-product. plants were

As or. 1940, 40 by ducts ovens were Installed here. This plant was
dastrayed,dt g the war and probablg remained inactive until about 191+74
The planned -produczicm for 1950 was reported to be 1,000 metric t zj of coke
It in probable that no.coke-ohemic w recovered in 1947, but it Is
ash that by -191+9 by- iroducts recovery mwunted to 50 vercent of the

General Inficrn.
As of 1940, 50 Collins 8 ton ovens were installed here with byproducts
recovery. The extent of the byproducts recovery is unknown, list until further
information is reeaived,.it is assumed to be complete. This plant was demolished
during the war and remained inactive until 1947, when the production was reported
as 50 percent of prewar, and reconstruction to prewar capacity was planned to be
completed in two years. It is probable that no coke--chemicals were produced in
1947, but it is assumed that by 1949 the by-prod. plants had been sufficiently
restored to recover coke-chemicals approximately proportional to the quantity of
coke produced,

G,g era1 Info tion.
Two batteries of US Koppers coke ovens were installed here in 1931, and
two more were added in 1933. The fifth, sixth, and seventh batteries (all
Soviet Koppers) were completed on 3 July 1942, 9 November 1943, and 24 July
1944, respectively, The eighth battery went into operation in July 1945. T
additional batteries were planned for the Fourth Five Year Plan (1946.50).
Complete by-products plants were put into operation along with the ovens.
The yields of coke--chemicals listed above for 1932 probably are high, since
the plant was just beginning operations, but it is believed that the yields
listed for the other years are approximately correct.

Four batteries of Soviet Koppers coke ovens (14+ tons per oven) ware installed
here in 1932 with complete by.-products plants and' a nitrogen fixation plant using
coke-oven gas from Zaporozhye and Xamenakoe,. A$1 were demolished in 1911 and all
were still inoperative in 1947. Two batteries of coke ovens were reported as re-
stored in August 1940. This plant is located in the Dnieper region, and reconstruction
lagged because of the necessity of first restoring the "Dnieprstroi" power plant.
It is bel .sved that the by-products plants were not in operation in 1949 but it is
thought that by 1950 they were sufficiently restored to recover a quantity of-coke.

General. Information.
Four batteries of Soviet Koppers ovens were installed here with complete
byroducts-plants in 1933. The plant was not destroyed by the retreating
Russians in 19141 but was demolished by the German before they were driven
from the Ukraine in 19143. Operations were not resumed until 19146, when the
restoration of two batteries was completed.
The plant, as well as the other coke-chonai,cal plants in the. Donbas region,
probably will not reach peak production until 1952`-:530. It' has been sa
that by 1949 restoration of the coke-chemical plants had progrosaod sufficiontly
to allow by-products recovery equivalent to 50 percent of the naximum yield from
the coal processed. The 1950 yield of coke-chemica from this and other Donbas
plants probably approached 75. percent of the maxinxim nor y possible from 1
coal processed,
