Petroleum coke deliveries from raw material experts
Petroleum coke, a very high-carbon, low-ash solid, is formed during crude oil processing. In dried form, cleaned of volatile components, the raw material is also referred to as calcine or calcined petroleum coke.
Green coke, on the other hand, still contains hydrocarbons. For foundry and steel products with the highest quality requirements, graphitised petroleum coke, which consists of more than 99 % carbon, offers the best conditions.
The general rule for petroleum coke is: the higher the carbon content, the higher the quality of the petroleum coke.

Use of petroleum coke
In metallurgy, and mostly in steel and aluminium production, petroleum coke is used as an energy supplier. In addition, the calcinate serves as a basis in the manufacture of brake linings and as a basic material in the production of carbon electrodes in the aluminium industry. In addition, calcined and graphitised petroleum coke and green coke are used for carburising in the steel industry. Green coke is also used in industrial heat generation.
