DESCRIPTION
Low sulfur Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) is an important material used in the production of anodes for the aluminum industry. Anodes are used in the electrolytic process of aluminum production, where they are consumed during the process to form aluminum metal from alumina. The quality of the anodes, and therefore the CPC used in their production, is critical to the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the process.
Property | Specification |
---|---|
Fixed Carbon (FC) | 99.0-99.5% |
Ash Content | 0.3-0.5% |
Volatile Matter (VM) | 0.5-0.8% |
Sulfur Content | 0.05-0.5% |
Moisture Content | 0.5% max |
Particle Size | 0-1mm, 1-3mm, 3-8mm, or as per customer requirement |
Bulk Density | 1.80-2.10 g/cm3 |
Real Density | 2.05-2.16 g/cm3 |

Low sulfur CPC is particularly important for anode production, as high levels of sulfur can lead to decreased anode performance and increased emissions. The above specification chart may vary depending on the specific application and customer requirements, but low sulfur content is typically a key requirement in anode production.
