Abstract
A procedure for the preparation of solid formed coke of enough adhesion and anisotropic development for use in the blast furnace has been studied, using non-fusible and slightly fusible coals with petroleum cocarbonizing additives. The coke precursor was prepared through the copreheat-treatment of coal and a suitable additive in adequate quantity under stipulated conditions. The desired coke was produced by carbonization after forming with a press. The conditions for the copreheat-treatment have been carefully examined in terms of the temperature, time and heating devices. The behaviour of coals during copreheat-treatment and carbonization were discussed in terms of coal ranks, comparing this behaviour to the liquefaction reactivity and thermal stability of their liquefied product.
