IC 7882 Selected Bibliography On Low-Temperature Tar ? Introduction

Abstracts of papers on low-temperature tar published since 1942 are included in this selected bibliography. Abstract journals -including Chemical Abstracts, Fuel Abstracts, and B.C.U.R.A. Monthly -have been consulted through 1957. Abstracts of papers on low-temperature carbonization are not included unless information is given on composition, economics, processing, or utilization of the tar; thus, papers reporting only yields of tar from assay tests, pilot plants, and commercial operations are excluded. Listing in the bibliography is alphabetical by authors; arrangement under each individual is chronological. Secondary authors are cross-indexed to the main entry. The subject index uses the main entries: Composition, economics, processing, and utilization with appropriate subheadings. A code letter following the abstract number indicates the country where the paper originated.
