  Altona - LoveToKnow 1911
ALTONA, a town of Germany, in the Prussian province of Schleswig-Holstein, on the right bank of the Elbe immediately west of Hamburg.
The name Altona is said to be derived from allzu-nah (" all too near"), the Hamburgers' designation for an inn which in the middle of the 16th century lay too close to their territory.
In 1864 Altona was occupied in the name of the German Confederation, passed to Prussia after the war of 1866, and 1888 together with Hamburg joined the Zollverein, while retaining certain free trade rights over the Freihafengebiet which it shares with Hamburg and Wandsbek.

However, the trustees of the Altona congregation declared Emden a disturber of the peace, against whom drastic measures should be taken; and the followers of Eybeschütz assumed such a threatening attitude that Emden was compelled to flee to Amsterdam (May 22, 1751).
Emden returned to Altona Aug. 3, 1752; and in December of the same year the courts ordered that nothing should be published concerning the amulets.
On the one hand it can not be denied that the amulets which he wrote contain expressions suggestive of belief in the Messiahship of Shabbethai Ẓebi; but on the other hand it is strange that the accusations came only from jealous enemies.

 Altona-based chemical companies in Australia
Sadly, the Altona complex, though very profitable for many years, would have grown substantially more competitive were it not for negotiated deferral of tariff reviews in 1979 by ICI that led to the building of a high cost naphtha cracker at Botany New South Wales that served to divide the small petrochemical industry.
Neither Botany nor Altona maximised the value of the C3 stream from their LPG/naphtha crackers as it was used to manufacture chlorohydrocarbons that could have been produced from ethylene (the use of C3 and C4 allows naphtha crackers to compete with gas-based crackers).
The economic contribution of Altona to the local economy (though not clear given the downstream costs on users) is overshadowed by investment that could have developed with full and well applied access to the Bass Strait feedstocks and the consequent favourable impact on downstream plastics and other user industries.
