Mixing. The raw materials, butadiene and styrene, and many special chemicals, are moved by these pumps from storage to the reactor areas at the Institute plant

Blending. Many batches of synthetic rubber latex are batched and blended in concrete storage tanks at the Institute plant. This blending assures uniformity of the product. After blending the rubber content is separated by coagulation

Production of butylene glycol. Butylene glycol is recovered from corn fermentation liquors in an experimental still in the pilot plant of the Northern Regional Research Laboratory of the U.S. Department of Agriculture at Peoria, Illinois. This is one step in the Department's research that led to the development of a fermentation method for converting corn into butylene glycol, a chemical that can be used in making anti-freeze for automobiles and in the production of commercial solvents for various manufacturing purposes. Research now is directed toward the development of a practical way to turn the butylene glycol into butadiene, from which synthetic rubber can be made. The work has already been done on a laboratory scale
