Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC): A Keystone for the Aluminum Industry and Beyond
Introduction
Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) stands as a critical ingredient in the production of aluminum, serving as the primary raw material used in the anodes manufacturing process. Its role extends beyond the aluminum industry, contributing significantly to the steel and other carbon-consuming sectors. At legionoilandgas.com, we specialize in the production and supply of high-grade CPC, tailored to meet the stringent specifications of our diverse clientele.
What is Calcined Petroleum Coke?
Calcined Petroleum Coke is derived from the process of calcining green petroleum coke (GPC), a by-product of oil refining. The process involves heating GPC at high temperatures, up to 1200 to 1350°C, to remove moisture, volatile matter, and impurities. This transformation results in a product that boasts a high carbon content, low sulfur levels, and minimal impurities, making it an ideal material for various industrial applications.
Applications of CPC coke
- Aluminum Production: CPC is indispensable in the production of aluminum. It is used to manufacture anodes, which are crucial for the electrolysis process that separates aluminum from its oxide.
- Steel Industry: Employed as a recarburizing agent, CPC helps in adjusting carbon content to ensure the production of high-quality steel.
- Graphite Electrode Manufacturing: Given its high purity and carbon content, CPC coke is also a key component in producing electrodes for electric arc furnaces in the steel industry.
- Other Uses: Beyond these, CPC finds applications in titanium dioxide production, as a component in brake pads and clutches, and in the manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries.
