Abstract

Physico-chemical characteristics or the industrial behaviour of any coal is directly controlled by its organic micro-components (macerals). The yields of by-products during carbonization of coal are affected by organo micro-components of different coals and operating parameters, such as, charging technologies, carbonization temperature, particle size, bulk density, etc. In the present investigation, the effects of volatile matters (16.61–36.00%), Ro, avg. (0.80–1.36%), exinite (0.5–4.5%), hydrogen (4.34–5.29%) and nitrogen (1.60–2.18%) content of coal on yield of by-products, such as, coke oven gas, coal tar, ammonia, and hydrogen sulphide were studied. The studies revealed that there is a significant difference of the yield of by-products for the two different charging technologies. The coke oven gas, coal tar and ammonia yield was lower in stamp charging process as compared to top charging process, whereas, hydrogen sulphide yield followed a reverse trend.
