Panaji, Goa, 1-Dec-2017 - Sesa Goa Iron Ore is proud to announce that they are one of the leading Met Coke suppliers in India. They are one of those suppliers who provide certified products with 100% originality. Coke is used towards the manufacturing of steel, among other products. It is a melting agent and produces heat so that the iron ore can be melted and steel can be produced, in the blast furnace. 0.6 tons of coke is used towards the manufacturing of around 1 ton of steel. 1 ton of the metallurgical coal produces 0.6 tons of coke. Met coke or metallurgical coal has the best density and can produce the maximum heat per unit area, and hence is a shining star in the mining scenario of India.
“Only high-quality metallurgical coal can yield high-quality coke, which packs more energy per unit area”, said by company spokesperson. He further added, “The better coals also produce coke with enhanced stability and “CSR” which is coke strength after reactivity. The met coke has low sulfur and low gas content as it is prepared by using the bituminous coal. The coal is poured into the ovens and heating at 1000 degrees ensures that ash is removed and carbon is fused. So, our met coke hence burns with no smoke whosoever.”
Iron ore, limestone and met coke are mixed together in the furnaces that are used for the production of steel. The chemical nature and properties of the substances ensures carbon bonding, and steel is formed. Around 95% of all the met coke that is produced is used towards the manufacturing of steel, and a met coke manufacturer in India has steel and metal casting producing industries as its leading clients.
Company spokesperson also said, “As it is obvious by the recent developments of global recession and uncertainty, the price of coke has come down, as the production scale has decreased in a number of industries related to the production of metal castings. The manufacturers and mining companies are selling coke at lower costs in order to clear the inventories and to be in the trade. Met coke suppliers in India is selling it at around $465 to $468 per ton and has reduced the cost by around $75. Because of its worthwhile properties, the metallurgical coke is still holding ground and is preferred by many industries for its processes.”
Metallurgical coke or low ash coke is used by the chemical and the metallurgical industries as well. The met coke serves as the primary fuel when uniform heating and high temperature if required. High quality met coke is also used in the manufacturing of engineering goods, chemicals, ferrous alloys and in other industries.
