Wide Applications of Petroleum Coke Boyond Carbon Raiser
Petroleum coke, also known as petcoke, is a solid carbon material that is a byproduct of the oil refining process. It is produced during the distillation of crude oil and other hydrocarbons at high temperatures and pressures.
- Petroleum coke has several applications, including:
- Fuel: Petcoke is used as a fuel in cement kilns and power plants. It is preferred over coal in some cases because it has a higher energy content and emits less greenhouse gases when burned.
- Anode Production: Petcoke is used as a raw material in the production of carbon anodes for the aluminum smelting industry. Anodes are used to conduct electricity during the smelting process, and petcoke provides the necessary carbon content.
- Steel Production: Petcoke is also used as a fuel in the steel industry, where it is used in blast furnaces to provide heat and reduce the amount of coal required.
- Fertilizer Production: Petcoke is used as a source of carbon in the production of nitrogen fertilizers. It is also used as a fuel in the production of ammonia, which is a key component of many fertilizers.
It’s worth noting that petcoke has been a topic of controversy due to its high carbon content and the potential environmental impact of its production and use. In some cases, petcoke has been found to contain high levels of sulfur and other pollutants, which can contribute to air pollution and other environmental issues. Our JBT serious to keep the sulfur content below 0.05%, we do tests before delivery the goods to guarantee customer get qualified product.
