At an installation where organic compounds are produced except the production of—

(a)

hydrocarbons (linear or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic or aromatic);

(b)

organic compounds containing oxygen (for example alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, ethers, peroxides, phenols, epoxy resins);

(c)

organic compounds containing sulphur (for example sulphides, mercaptans, sulphonic acids, sulphonates, sulphates and sulphones and sulphur heterocyclics);

(d)

organic compounds containing nitrogen (for example amines, amides, nitrous-, nitro-or azo-compounds, nitrates, nitrogen heterocyclics, cyanates, isocyanates, di-isocyanates and di-isocyanate prepolymers);

(e)

organic compounds containing phosphorus (for example substituted phosphines and phosphate esters);

(f)

organic compounds containing halogens (for example halocarbons, halogenated aromatic compounds and acid halides);

(g)

organometallic compounds (for example lead alkyls, Grignard reagents and lithium alkyls);

(h)

plastic materials (for example polymers, synthetic fibres and cellulose-based fibres);

(i)

synthetic rubbers;

(j)

dyes and pigments;

(k)
