Description

Coking Coal is a grade of coal that can be used to produce good quality coke. Coke is an essential fuel and reactant in the blast furnace process for primary steelmaking.

Coking coal is low in ash, moisture, sulfur and phosphorus content, and its rank is usually bituminous.

Metallurgical coal produces strong, low-density coke when it is heated in a low-oxygen environment.

There are several types of metallurgical coal:

  • Hard Coking Coals (HCC)
  • Medium Coking Coal (MCC)
  • Semi-Soft Coking Coal (SSCC)
  • Pulverized Coal for Injection (PCI)
