The objective of this work was to analyze the activity of petroleum coke and of activated carbons prepared from this material in the ozonation of aromatic contaminants of low biodegradability. 1,3,6-Naphthalenetrisulphonic acid (NTS) was selected as model compound for the study. The presence of the original coke during 1,3,6-naphthalenetrisulphonic acid ozonation produced a slight increase in t...

With the development of ubiquitous information environment in metallurgical industry, driving type of metallurgical equipment systems is changing from energy-driven to information-driven. The problems of the metallurgical equipment information communication path intelligent planning are taken as the research object. Based on the cellular automata theory, the integrated framework of metallurgica...

The phosphorus and potassium contents of the char obtained from thermal conversion forest residues can limit its utilization as an alternative fuel reducing agent to substitute coal/coke in steelmaking industry. In this study, ash transformation release K P during single-pellet different types (i.e., bark, twigs, bark+twigs) were investigated with aid a vertical tube furnace (Macro-TGA) at temp...

In this paper, an integrated coke dry quenching combined gasification system using coke oven gas and steam to quench the incandescent coke is proposed. The distinct advantages of the system include energy conservation, pollution reduction, coke quality improvement and full use of resources. Based on the minimization of the Gibbs free energy, the flow rate and composition of the syngas are predi...

Objectives are to investigate the effects of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) on the autonomic nervous system of coke oven workers. One hundred eighty-four coke oven workers were divided into 3 groups according to their working sites (coke oven bottom group, coke oven side group and coke oven top group), and 93 referents were recruited. B[a]P monitored by air sampling pumps as well as urinary 1-hydroxypy...

This paper studies the properties of metallurgical briquettes iron ore concentrate with coke screenings and liquid glass as a binder. The are produced by one-sided pressing in closed die mounted on plates vertical press force 100 kN. were carried out laboratory Spidermash LLC. following determined: density, impact strength compressive (for green dry briquettes). functional dependences mechanica...

In recent years, although the China government has carried out some serious investigation and effort to shut down the indigenous coke-production, it has not achieved effective control. The main image TM754 (red, green, blue) false color composite of Shanxi province in northern China was chosen as the study area in this paper. The indigenous coke-production sites are regions which appear red and...

The danger excessive coking pressure poses to the integrity and longevity of coke ovens has been recognized for many years [1-7]. During carbonisation in a coke oven fissures in the coke are generated due to stresses that arise from the differential contraction rates in adjacent layers of coke, which are at different temperatures [8]. Typically they are longitudinal, i.e. perpendicular to the o...

Coke oven, which is a large industrial furnace, is complex in structure. A two-dimensional structure diagram can hardly help one observe the inner structure of a coke oven or master its working principle comprehensively. In order to solve this problem, a complete 3D digital model of a coke oven is generated by assembling the three-dimensional models of coke oven components created with SketchUp...

Coke-oven workers are exposed to dust and irritant gases. Therefore they are at risk of developing lung diseases including chronic bronchitis. Nonspecific bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) has been advocated as a potential risk factor predisposing to the development of chronic bronchitis. In a previous study, we showed that prevalence of BHR was higher in retired coke-oven workers than in ret...
