  Coke and Coal Sourcing and Consulting from Crown Coal and Coke Company
Metallurgical coal, or coking coal, is used in the process of producing coke, and is sold on the basis of its carbon, sulfur, ash and volatile content.
Crown Coal and Coke Company, through its knowledge of the coking process, is an experienced evaluator of metallurgical coals and their value in the coal market.
Coke is made from low ash, sulfur and phosphorus coking coals, which have certain physical properties that cause them to soften, liquefy and then re-solidify into hard but porous lumps when heated in the absence of air.

  Kids.Net.Au - Encyclopedia > Coke (coal)   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Coke is a solid carbonaceous residue derived from low-ash, low-sulfur bituminous coal from which the volatile constituents (including water, coal-gas and coal-tar) are driven off by baking in an airless oven at temperatures as high as 1,000 degrees Celsius so that the fixed carbon and residual ash are fused together.
Coke is used as a fuel and as a reducing agent in smelting iron ore in a blast furnace[?].
Coke from coal is grey, hard, and porous and has a heating value of 28 million joules/kilogram.

 Coal Industry Terms
Coke (coal): A solid carbonaceous residue derived from low-ash, low-sulfur bituminous coal from which the volatile constituents are driven off by baking in an oven at temperatures as high as 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit so that the fixed carbon and residual ash are fused together.
In coals that were formed in persistent swamp environments, the floor is typically a bed of clay, known as "underclay," representing the soil in which the trees or other coal-forming swamp vegetation was rooted.
Coal analyses expressed on a moist basis are performed or adjusted so as to describe the data when the coal contains only that moisture which exists in the bed in its natural state of deposition, and when the coal has not lost any moisture due to drying.

 Environmental Defense - Coke Making
Coke is produced in batches of many tons at a facility called a coke battery, which is often located at or near an integrated steel mill.
There is, however, a limit to the amount of coal that can be substituted for coke in the blast furnace because of the strength differences between coal and coke.
The connection between the pipe from each coke oven to the gas-collection pipe is exposed to cycles of heating and cooling, and achieving an air-tight seal on this connection is difficult.

 Pearson Coal Petrography - Quality control
Cokes that have inherently higher drum strengths and lower reactivity to C0 are therefore desireable (Figure 1), and it has been demonstrated by NSC that to maintain trouble-free operation at large blast furnaces, CSR's should be maintained above 57 (Ishikawa, 1982).
Subsequent coke microscopy studies have correlated the reactivity to the texture of the coke; fine mosaic carbons (from high volatile coals) and ribbon-like carbons (from low volatile coals) are more reactive than coarse-mosaic carbon forms (from medium volatile coal).
Although a correlation between coke reactivity and coal rank had been established for a number of years prior to the advent of strength tests on reacted coke, a rigorous investigation of the geological factors which affect coke reactivity and strength from the perspective of the parent coals was not done until the 1980's.

 History of Coke
Before the advent of large-scale mining in Jefferson and Indiana counties, coke was manufactured by burning coal in heaps on the ground in such a way that only the outer layer burned, leaving the interior of the pile in a carbonized state.
Coke from Jefferson Country was particularly suited to foundry use, and markets for it extended as far west as the Mississippi River.
As the new century dawned, however, the RandP CandI, Jefferson County's largest coal and coke producer began to outgrow the area of its origin and by 1900, an extension of the BRandP Railway was headed south.

 Coke: Carbonized coal used primarily in steel production.
Although the coke workers were regarded as mere "laborers" at most operations, in truth many of the job positions required exacting skills and knowledge gained only through years of experience.
Practically all of the region's early coke plants used "beehive" coke ovens, so named because the interior of the oven was dome-shaped, similar to the shape of a beehive.
Instead of using beehive coke ovens, a more efficient design was employed which allow gases and valuable chemicals to be recovered during the process of turning coal into coke.
