DESCRIPTION
Calcined petroleum coke (CPC) is a high-quality carbon material produced by heating green petroleum coke to a high temperature in a rotary kiln. The process removes moisture, volatile matter, and other impurities from the raw coke, leaving a high-purity carbon material with a low ash content.
Low ash content is a desirable characteristic of CPC, as it indicates a higher level of purity and a lower level of impurities that can affect the material’s performance in various applications. Ash content is the residue left after burning a substance, and in the case of CPC, it can consist of mineral matter, such as silica, iron oxide, and alumina, that are present in the raw coke.
CPC with low ash content is particularly useful in applications that require high-purity carbon material, such as the production of electrodes for the steel and aluminum industries, as well as in the production of anodes for the production of aluminum.
The ash content of CPC can vary depending on the quality of the raw coke and the calcination process used. Typically, low ash content CPC has an ash content of less than 0.5%, while higher ash content CPC can have ash content levels of up to 3%.
