Metallurgical Coke






Metallurgical Coke Description
Metallurgical coke, often simply called “met coke,” is a crucial material in the steel making industry. It’s a carbon-rich material derived from coal through a process called coking, which involves heating coal in the absence of air to remove volatile components. This process transforms the coal into a hard, porous substance that’s primarily made up of carbon, with some residual impurities.

Use of metallurgical coke
- The primary use of metallurgical coke is in the blast furnace for steel making. It serves two main purposes: fuel and reducing Agent
- Iron making: In addition to steel making, metallurgical coke is used in the production of pig iron, a raw material for steel making
- Non-Ferrous Metal Production: Met coke is used in the production of non-ferrous metals such as lead, zinc, and copper.
- Chemical Industry: Metallurgical coke can also be used as a feedstock in the chemical industry for producing various chemicals
