1. Introduction. Coke is an important raw material in the metallurgical and chemical industry [1].Coking technology is constantly changing and has become a mature and widely used method of comprehensive coal utilization with the development of the metallurgical and chemical industry [2, 3].The National Bureau of Statistics of China reported that Chinese coke production in 2019 was 438 million ...
Coal carbonization is a process that yields metallurgical coke for use in ironmaking blast furnaces and other metalsmelting processes. Carbonization entails heating the coal to temperatures as high as 1300 °C in the absence of oxygen to distill out tars and light oils. A gaseous byproduct, referred to as cokeoven gas, together
The key difference between coal and coke is that Coal is a naturally occurring fossil fuel. Coke, on the other hand, is derived from heating coal. In other words, Coal originates naturally from the fossilization of organic matter over millions of years. In contrast, Coke is derived from coal through a process called coking, involving high ...
Coal to Make Coke and Steel. Metallurgical coal (also called "met" coal) is an important raw material used in the steelmaking process, although very small amounts of coal (relative to the amount used for electricity) are needed. The coal used to make steel is heated without air in an oven at temperatures of as much as 2,060°F (1,125°F ...
Metallurgical or coking coal is a primary ingredient in the steel making process. More than twothirds of global steel is produced in basic oxygen blast furnaces. China is the largest consumer of premium coking coal in the world. Coking coal, generally known as metallurgical coal, is a naturally occurring sedimentary rock.
Metallurgical coke is an important raw material for pig iron production in the blast furnace. During this process the coke undergoes severe mechanical, thermal and chemical stresses. One of these is the CO2 gasification which may lead to a decisive mechanical weakening of the lump coke by increased carbon burnoff.
Metallurgical Coke, Other Coke, and ByProducts In its function as a metallurgical fuel, coke is a key material in the industrial process. The development of this fuel and its primary purpose is the need of a satisfactory smelting fuel. Today, its usefulness goes far beyond the need for smelting. Coke is used as a domestic
On heating in the absence of air, the coking coal is converted to a plastic liquid state. The plastic mass surrounds solid grains of noncoking coal. This is a cementation process. Accordingly, coke of sufficient strength may only be obtained from clinkering coal. On heating the coal grains to 455°C, most of the plastic material decomposes.
