Abstract

The coal blend quality and process control of coke making technologies is an important lever to produce quality coke with optimal cost. Apart from impacting cost, this improves the CO2 footprint. This is facilitated by proper selection of coke making technologies and coal/coal blend. Each technology has its own advantage and limitation based on its design criteria. Recently, Tata Steel introduced Asia largest single location 1.6 mtpa of heat recovery coke plant for the first time. This paper briefly described the operational philosophy evolved in heat recovery coke plant to produce desired quality coke at comparatively lower cost through operational excellence. The reduction of imported prime hard coking coal in coal blend up to 30% without affecting coke quality adversly and understanding the operational processes and finally mastering heat recovery coke making technology was also part of this paper.
