9780331037470: Predicting Coke Stability From Petrographic Analysis of Illinois Coals (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

Unlock the science behind how coal petrology predicts coke stability. This detailed report shows how petrographic analysis can forecast the strength of coke produced from Illinois coals and blends. It covers methods, terminology, and practical data used to link coal makeup to coking outcomes, helping readers understand a key part of steelmaking chemistry.

This edition explains the history of coal petrography, introduces standardized nomenclature, and explains how inert and reactive components influence coke stability. It also presents equations and guidance for applying petrographic data to determine stability factors, with example analyses and result comparisons.


  • Clear explanations of macerals, reflectance classes, and how they relate to coke quality.

  • Step-by-step methods for predicting coke stability from petrographic analyses.

  • Discussion of historical and international standards in coal petrology terminology.

  • Practical data tables and figures showing how predictions match with pilot oven results.



Ideal for readers involved in coal processing, metallurgical coke production, and industrial rock petrology seeking a practical, data-driven approach to predicting coke performance.
