The coking plant was built in the 1990s as a replacement for the south-located and now almost demolished coking plant August Thyssen in the "coke-only" technique., I. The production of chemicals previously sought after in the chemical industry, such as tar, benzene, naphthalene, etc., was largely abandoned. The coking plant is located directly on the publicly inaccessible Rhine port; the imported coal can therefore be processed directly.
