Abstract

The use of petroleum coke as an additive in coal blends has been tested and established successfully to produce metallurgical coke of acceptable quality at JSW. The performance of coke produced from coking coal blends containing petroleum coke was successfully tested in Blast furnaces. The amount of petroleum coke that may be incorporated in the blend without impairing the coke quality considerably depends mainly on the particle size and the rheological properties of the coal blend. The addition of petroleum coke produces a decrease in Maximum Fluidity (MF) in the blend due to the liberation of low molecular weight substances during heating within the plastic range and hydrogen containing species available to generate fluidity in co carbonization system. The use of low volatile petroleum coke as an additive resulted in better yield and reduction of coke ash.The ability of petroleum coke to interact with coal during plastic stage to impart good bonding between components and maintain the coke quality to match the Blast Furnace requirements is well established through laboratory studies
