World History of Manufactured Gas:
A 'World' of Land Redevelopment Possibilities

Dr. Hatheway's 2006 Keynote paper from the Reading, UK, 2nd. International Symposium and Exhibition on the Redevelopment of Manufactured Gas Plant Sites remains downloadable here in both the text and slide formats.  Together they provide a peek at the very complicated history of how manufactured gas technology circled the globe bringing this type of illumination to most regions of the world by 1912, the last of which was at Manila, Philippine Islands. Several tables in the conference proceedings paper provide the details of the first instances of gas light around the world.

NOTE:  These files will be in one or more of the following formats:

          "PPT":  MicroSoft Office 2003 PowerPoint - these files tend to be quite large but will run on both
                      MAC and PC systems with both newer and older versions of the PowerPoint software.
       "PPTX":  MicroSoft Office 2007 PowerPoint XML file - PC only (?) - much smaller in size than the
                      older PPT file format.  Unfortunately they require the 2007 software in order to view them.
         "PDF":  Adobe Acrobat "Portable Document Format" file - readable on both MAC and PC.
                      Files tend to be larger than PPTX and slightly smaller than PPT.  Most original special effects
