It is now a crucial resource across many sectors. The high content of carbon in this material, along with its low level impurities and thermal stability make it essential for processes like the aluminum melting and steel making. GPC is also an integral component in energy solutions like lithium-ion batteries.
GPC is the product of a high-temperature process called graphitization, in which raw petroleum coke is heated to convert its amorphous, carbon structure into an ordered and crystalline one. GPC's superior properties are a result of this transformation, which includes the ability to withstand high temperatures as well as chemical stresses.
GPC is one of most important industrial carbon sources. Its carbon content exceeds 99%. Its highly-ordered, crystalline structure results in excellent mechanical properties. These are crucial for manufacturing carbon products as well as steel.
GPC's extremely low nitrogen and sulfur contents make it a viable alternative for certain applications. It reduces the emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide, both of which are harmful to the environment. GPC's lower ash content also allows it to be used in applications that require thermal efficiency.
In order to use GPC as a fuel alternative or for your industrial process, it is important that you ensure its quality. The chemical analysis will help you determine the type of petcoke that you possess. You can determine the quality of pet coke by analyzing its carbon, hydrogen and oxygen content, as well as nitrogen and sulfur.
Graphite Petroleum Coke, in addition to having a very high carbon content has excellent thermal conductivity. This makes it essential for many industrial applications such as furnace linings, carbon electrodes, and other products. During the production of graphite electrodes, GPC is heated to extreme temperatures in order to increase their strength and hardness. In this way, a tough and durable material is created that's suitable for heavy industrial use.
