The industrial area near Bitterfeld became very important in the field of chemical industry from the end of the 19th century. Thus, in 1894, the first large-scale technical plant for chlor-alkali electrolysis was put into operation and in 1900 the first plant in Germany for the production of phosphorus using the electrothermical process. Based on the post-chlorinated PVC developed in Bitterfeld, the world's first fully synthetic fiber was produced in 1934 at the Filmfabrik Wolfen (Pe-Ce fiber).During the First World War, Bitterfeld became the center of explosives production and produced chlorine and phosgene for use as poison gas. In 1925, with the founding of the IG Farbenindustrie AG, the factories became part of a particularly powerful company in German economic history. The plant in Bitterfeld became the headquarters of the IG Farben Betriebsgemeinschaft Mitteldeutschland.During the Second World War, the production of the companies of IG Farben was changed over to the needs of the defense industry, mainly on basic and precursor products, such as nitric and hydrochloric acid, cellulose, rayon and light metals.With SMAD's Order No. 124 of Oct. 30, 1945, the plant in Bitterfeld was placed under the control of the Soviet administration and in 1946 incorporated into the SAG Mineral Düngemittel "Kaustik". After that, the factory name was VEB Elektrochemisches Kombinat Bitterfeld.The fully descripted and online researchable collection (I 506 IG Farbenindustrie AG, Chemische Werke Bitterfeld, approximately 58 linear meters) contains compacted documents of economic history. This archival holding exemplifies a unique feature of the state archives in the new federal states of Germany (formerly German Democratic Republic) and reflects the multiple breaks of different political and economic systems. The digitization of the entire collection will enable those interested therein – regardless of time and location - to work on a variety of research questions about the center of the chemical industry in central Germany. Conceivable are studies on the history of the IG Farben or (supraregional) comparative considerations with other production sites of the (chemical) economy. This will further increase the national and international use of this holding through significantly improved accessibility.As it has been consistently realized since 2014 within the digitization strategy of the Landesarchiv Saxony-Anhalt, at the end of the project, all digital copies will be made accessible not only via the research portal of the Landesarchiv, but also through various national portals (Archivportal-D, DDB, Archivportal Europa).

从19世纪末开始，比特菲尔德附近的工业区在化学工业领域变得非常重要。因此，1894年，第一家大型氯碱电解技术厂投产，1900年，德国第一家使用电热法生产磷的工厂投产。基于Bitterfeld开发的后氯化聚氯乙烯，世界上第一个全合成纤维于1934年在FilmFabrik Wolfen(PE-CE纤维)生产。在第一次世界大战期间，Bitterfeld成为炸药生产的中心，生产氯和光气用作毒气。1925年，随着IG FarbenIndustrial股份公司的成立，这些工厂成为德国经济史上一家特别强大的公司的一部分。比特菲尔德的工厂成为IG Farben Betriebsgomeinschaft Mitteldeutschland的总部。在第二次世界大战期间，IG Farben公司的生产转变为国防工业的需要，主要是基础产品和前体产品，如硝酸和盐酸、纤维素、人造丝和轻金属。根据SMAD 1945年10月30日的第124号订单，比特菲尔德的工厂由苏联政府控制，并于1946年并入SAG Minative Düngeittel“Kaustik”。在此之后，工厂名称是VEB ElektroChemisches Kombinat Bitterfield。完全描述和在线可研究的集合(I 506 IG FarbenIndue AG，Chemische Werke Bitterfeld，约58直线米)包含经济历史的压缩文档。这种档案保存体现了德国(前德意志民主共和国)新的联邦州国家档案的独特特征，并反映了不同政治和经济制度的多重断裂。整个收藏的数字化将使那些对此感兴趣的人--无论时间和地点--能够研究关于德国中部化学工业中心的各种研究问题。可以想象的是，对IG Farben的历史进行研究，或者(超区域)将其与(化学)经济的其他生产地点进行比较。由于自2014年以来一直在萨克森-安哈尔州地方档案馆数字化战略范围内实现这一点，因此在项目结束时，所有数字副本不仅将通过州档案馆的研究门户网站，而且还将通过各种国家门户网站(档案门户网站D、DDB、档案馆门户网站欧罗巴)获得。
