Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC)

Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) has several advantages:

• High Fixed Carbon Content: CPC contains a high level of fixed carbon, providing reliable carbon elements and enhancing the carbon content of the furnace charge.
• Low Sulfur and Nitrogen Content: Typically low in sulfur and nitrogen, CPC helps reduce impurities in metallic materials, improving the purity of the finished steel.
• High Heat Value and Energy Density: Its high fixed carbon content results in a high heat value and energy density, releasing more heat during smelting, thereby elevating furnace temperature and accelerating reactions.
• Stable Chemical Properties: CPC exhibits stable chemical properties and doesn’t readily decompose or volatilize at high temperatures, maintaining a stable chemical environment in the furnace.
• Slag Control: Used as an additive, CPC can regulate slag properties, optimizing slag flow and reducing viscosity during the steelmaking process.
• Homogeneity: As a homogeneous granular material, CPC is easy to mix and incorporate into steelmaking materials, enhancing material homogeneity and consistency within the furnace.

Overall, Calcined Petroleum Coke, as a steelmaking additive, provides high-quality carbon elements, optimizes slag characteristics, raises furnace temperatures, and accelerates reactions, thereby improving both efficiency and quality in steel production.
