Metallurgical coke or 'Met coke' or 'BF (blast furnace) coke' or simply 'coke in short' is a hard carbon material produced in the process of the 'destructive distillation' of various blends of bituminous coal. It is produced by carbonization of coal at high temperatures (1,100 deg C) in an oxygen deficient atmosphere in a coke oven.
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

Raw coke. Coke is a grey, hard, and porous coalbased fuel with a high carbon content and few impurities, made by heating coal or oil in the absence of air—a destructive distillation process. It is an important industrial product, used mainly in iron ore smelting, but also as a fuel in stoves and forges when air pollution is a concern.. The unqualified term "coke" usually refers to the ...
The BI for coke and biocoke samples at 1100 °C and the reference metallurgical coke in have close values. It is important to note that the values of reactivity and strength are the course of the caking process of the coal blend upon heating. The caking process occurs on the surface of coal particles.
The blast furnace (BF) is a highefficiency shaft furnace. The high heat utilization rate and production efficiency make the BF route the dominant ironmaking process globally [].About 70% of the hot metal used in producing crude steel comes from the BF route [2,3,4].Coke is an indispensable burden in the blast furnace, and its performance shows a substantial impact on the ironmaking process [].
Similarly, in some of the coke producing processes, use of low rank coal [ high volatile bituminous coal] to produce metallurgical coke was carried out. However, production of such metallurgical coke involved heating low rank coal to long durations in excess of an hour's time while using microwave energy power in the range excess to 8 kW at ...
Nowadays, high volatile bituminous coals are broadly used for metallurgical coke production in Russia. The share of such coals in the coking blend is variable from 20 to 40 % by weight. There are some coal deposits in Kuznetskii basin which have big resources of the coals with low caking tendency.
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.
