1. I n t r o d u c t i o n
For making m e t a l l u r g i c a l coke high caking c o a l i s g e n e r a l l y
blended w i t h c o a l charge a t high r a t i o .
Many an investigation.; 1) have h i t h e r t o been made w i t h an intent i o n of saving high caklng c o a l without degrading the q u a l i t y of coke
produced.
The methods attempted i n Japan are as follows:(1) Coke breeze blending method. 2)
A small q u a n t i t y of coke breeze, pulverized under about 0.012" i s
blended with the c o a l char e.
( 2 ) C o a l i t e blending method. 33
C o a l i t e pulverized under some 0.012'' i s blended with the c o a l
charge.
(3) Bo-iun Tan method. 4)
Low grade c o a l with high v o l a t i l e matter i s swelled w i t h o i l i n
low temperature.
(1) and (2) were applied t o p r a c t i c a l operation for some period,
b u t a t present they have been stopped using for economical reasons.
There i s no prospect of (3) being used Fn p r a c t i c a l operation,
notwithstanding i t was an e x c e l l e n t i n v e s t i g a t i o n . Formerly, we intended t o manufacture for many years m e t a l l u r g i c a l coke d i r e c t l y from
low or non-caking c o a l w i t h high v o l a t i l e matter, using t h e s e c o a l s as
main raw material.
A t the f i r s t s t a g e i t was c l a r i f i e d t h a t coking property of these
low grade c o a l s was much improved by b r i q u e t t i n g under comparatively
low pressure (2845-35551biin2). Based on t h i s f a c t we could produce
good m e t a l l u r g i c a l b r i q u e t t e coke ( s i z e : 1.6511 x l.b5I1 x 1 . 1 8 I t ,
strength: s t a b i l i t y f a c t o r = 40-45 $, hardness f a c t o r = 72-74 $1 by
carbonizing r a w b r i q u e t t e a t high temperature, when t i i n , raw b r i q u e t t e
w a s made from the mixture of low caking c o a l and non-caking c o a l
reasonably blended as main raw material. The r e s u l t was a l r e a d y
published. 5 ) . In this method the most important p o i n t i s t o keep the
q u a n t i t y of caking c o n s t i t u e n t s of raw b r i q u e t t e w i t h i n c o n s t a n t
limits. It i s impossible however t o use the o r d i n a r y h o r i z o n t a l
chamber oven, due t o b r i q u e t t e coke (pillowshaped) of the product.
M i t h t h e o b j e c t of solving t h i s p r o b l e s we planned t o carbonize
the mixture of raw b r i q u e t t e and t h e c o a l charge in h o r i z o n t a l chaaber
oven, by blending raw b r i q u e t t e with the c o a l charge i n coke p l a n t .
I t i s d e s i r a b l e i n this case t h a t the c o a l charge and raw b r i q u e t t e
should m e l t each other during carbonization and good lump coke be
produced a s the r e s u l t .
we should l i k e t o c a l l this method l'lYetallurgical coke manufact u r i n g method by blending raw briquette."
The p r e s e n t i n v e s t i g a t i o n i s i n the process of study, and n o t y e t
in the s t a g e of discussing i t s economical value.
Next, mention i s going t o be made of the main p a i n t s of this
method, as it seems t o c o n t a i n some t e c h n i c a l l y i n t e r e s t i n g probless.
