Further Studies of the Partial Gasification of Coke in Relation to the Coke Tensile Strength

摘要

Previous reports have described studies of the partial gasification of coke and its influence on the coke tensile strength and of the quantification of the changes in the coke structure and strength brought about by reaction with carbon dioxide at 1000 Sq C. In this report these studies are extended to consider the effect of varying the size of specimen used and the effects on the coke carboxy-reactivity brought about by changes in the nature of the coal blend used to produce the coke. These changes are related to the accompanying changes in the coke strength as assessed by the tensile strength measured by the diametral-compression test.
