Foundry coke, also known as hard coal coke, is expertly produced in non-recovery coke ovens. It plays a crucial role in melting iron and a variety of metals such as lead, copper, tin, and zinc within a cupola furnace at foundries. With its denser structure, high carbon content, low ash, and superior heating value, foundry coke is larger than metallurgical coke, specifically designed for the dimensions of the cupola furnace. It serves as a sturdy supporting matrix, an effective reducing agent, and a potent energy carrier during the intricate pig iron manufacturing process. Utilizing large-sized coke offers significant advantages like reduced blasting pressure, increased metal temperature, less breakage during handling, and reduced reactivity with CO2.
The global foundry coke market is extensively divided based on furnace size, process, metal smelting type, and geographical region. Regarding furnace size, the market splits into 600-1200 mm, 1200-1800 mm, and above 1800 mm categories. Foundry coke predominantly fuels the cupola furnace, with its size precisely tailored to the cupola furnace's internal diameter. As furnace size increases, the foundry coke size required also grows, ensuring peak performance.
Renowned for its essential function in blast furnaces, foundry coke is vital for smelting copper, lead, zinc, titanium, antimony, and various other non-ferrous metals. It provides necessary heat and stabilizes the carbon content of the metal product. Foundry coke production demands lower temperatures and longer durations than blast furnace coke. Notable for its large block size, low reactivity, minimal porosity, outstanding shatter strength, and low ash and sulfur content, foundry coke stands as an industry essential.FAQ
