Objective
The behaviour of coke in the blast furnace is still a main concern. However, the tests currently available for coke characterization do not correctly reflect the actual stresses suffered by coke in the blast furnace.
The objective of the project consists in the set-up of new laboratory tests to characterize the coke behaviour at high temperature under blast furnace conditions. The validity of these tests will be demonstrated by comparing the characteristics of the cokes resulting from the tests with the cokes sampled at the blast furnace tuyeres.
The tests will be designed in order to allow the iron-making industry to better characterize coke quality on a routine basis.
