Oil coke is an byproduct rich in carbon that's produced during crude oil refining. After refining the crude oil into gasoline and jet fuel among other products is done, the heavy fractions in an adsorption unit are heated. This breaks large hydrocarbons molecules down to smaller sizes. Petcoke is a solid residue which can be used in a wide range of industries.
In order for petcoke to be used in the smelting of aluminium it must be calcined. This will remove any volatile materials and increase its energy density. In a rotary or vertical shaft kiln, petcoke is heated to high temperature. In the process, moisture and sulphur are removed from coke. Also, it reduces insulation properties while increasing conductivity.
Calcined petroleum coke, which is a key raw material for the manufacture of metals and chemical products, is made by heating petcoke in order to reduce its volatile content and increase energy density. This is accomplished by heating the raw material in a rotary kiln at about 1300 degrees Fahrenheit. The resultant product is known as calcined Petroleum Coke. It's used in many industries, including the production of carbon additives, graphite electrodes, and aluminum.
This environmentally friendly method uses waste heat produced during the refinement process in order to eliminate water and volatile substances. This helps to reduce the amount of waste that is generated during the manufacturing of petroleum products, which can be a significant benefit for the environment.
The calcination process is also highly efficient in terms of energy, reducing the energy consumption during production. As a result, the emissions of petrochemicals can be reduced.
A high growth rate is predicted for the calcined coal market over the projection period due to its numerous applications in aluminium production, titanium dioxide production, steel manufacturing and the manufacture of other industrial chemicals. Market growth is likely to be restricted due to environmental restrictions, and the ban of coal mining. During the forecast, however, the increasing demand for calcined petrol coke is expected to overcome the challenges.
