And they are only a few of the 300 products’ discovered yearly that are made with Petrochemicals — Science’s latest and most-magic wand. The future for perrochemicals is bigger and brighter than ever. Chemists say only 3% of the half-million known 3 organic chemicals have been exploired. o What are petrochemicals? The residue of hydrogen and carbon atoms resulting from the ‘refining and cracking of crude. oil to make gasoline. This residue, further refined, produces chemicals such as ‘ethylene, propylene, butadiene, which in turn become plastics, detergents; ‘synthetic rubbers and fibres...

A360 -million-dollar enterprise, this is the heart of Canada’s. petrochemical industry. Sarhia,-on the river just south of Lake Huron, first got started in the petroleum business “Inthe 1850’s when the first oil well in Norch America blew in at nearby Oil Springs. In 1897 the first’ company went into operation on the river bank. Refinerics attract other “industries and with the help of such essential endowments as water, electriciry, salt, “transportation and markets, Sarnia soon became the centre for a chriving oil industry. The big boom in petrochemicals came in 1942 when wartime shortages sparked the search for artificial rnbber. Discoveries in plastics, synthetic fibres and detergents brought new plants clustering in the’chain-reaction expansion that has marked all petrochemical boom centres. The petrochemical industry — fastest-growing in the world, increases at the rate of 1@°% a year. New. processes produce new products and markets daily. Sarmia’s popula- tion has doubled in ‘the Jast 10 years as Chemical Valley provides the most stable labour force in the country with one of the highest average wages. The riverbank cown with the weird chemical landscape has grown into a petroleum powerhouse. New uses for petrochemicals are being discovered at the rate of 300 a year. In construction, engineers predict an all-plastic house by 1968. A new plastic is hard enough to make into nails, Beamis, ‘sheathing...
