Production of Formed Coke and Trials in Blast Furnace

Abstract

The production of a formed coke in excellent quality has been realized in use of a non-coking coal as the main raw materials.
As the result of the experimental use of this formed coke for the No.2 blast furnace in Kokura Steel Works of Sumitomo Metal Industries, Ltd. it has been proved that it is not inferior to the conventional coke for same.
We intend to study for enlarging coke oven and to make efforts to materialize the economic rationalization of a formed coke for a large blast furnace.
