LAMC

Low Ash Metallurgical Coke (LAM Coke/MET Coke) is solid carbonaceous material obtained from destructive distillation of low ash, low sulphur Bituminous coal. Coke is formed when the coal is heated in the absence of air. The residue obtained from the carbonization of a non-coking coal such as sub Bituminous coal. Lignite or Anthracite is normally …

Bhutan First Ferro Silicon plant

Bhutan First Ferro silicon first furnace of 28.5MVA capacity was set up during October 1994. The main smelting furnace and its auxiliary equipment were procured from Elkem Technology, Norway, one of the leading manufacturers of furnace equipment in the world. The plant is being operated since 1995. With the growing demand of Ferro Alloys all …

Low Ash Metallurgical Coke

Low ash metallurgical coke is largely manufactured from imported low ash coking coal with ash < 9%. Low ash metallurgical coke is used as a fuel in the iron and steel industry. In foundries, coke is used in Cupola and in the iron and steel industry, it is used in blast furnace and ferro alloy …

Low Ash Metallurgical Coke

Metallurgical coke is made from low ash, low sulfur bituminous coal, with special coking properties, which is inserted into ovens and heated to 1000F to fuse fixed carbon and inherent ash and drive off most of the volatile matter. The final product is a nearly pure carbon source with sizes ranging from basketballs (foundry coke) …
