DESCRIPTION
Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) is used as a key component in metallurgical applications, particularly in the production of steel and aluminum. It is added to the furnace charge as a carbon source and is essential for the reduction of metal oxides to their elemental form.
In metallurgical applications, the quality of CPC is of critical importance. Some of the key properties that are important for metallurgical-grade CPC include:
Property | Specification |
---|---|
Fixed Carbon (FC) | 98.5-99.5% |
Ash Content | 0.5-1.5% |
Volatile Matter (VM) | 0.5-1.5% |
Sulfur Content | 0.1-1.0% |
Moisture Content | 0.5% max |
Particle Size | 0-1mm, 1-3mm, 3-8mm, or as per customer requirement |
Bulk Density | 1.85-2.20 g/cm3 |
Real Density | 2.05-2.16 g/cm3 |
Electrical Resistivity | 400-600 micro-ohm/m |
It’s important to note that the quality of CPC used in metallurgical applications is closely monitored to ensure that it meets the requirements for the specific application, and that it is consistent and reliable.
