Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC)
What is CPC?
CPC is obtained by heating green petroleum coke at ~1300°C to remove volatile matter, increase carbon content, and improve conductivity. It is mainly used in aluminum, steel, and chemical industries.
Properties:
✅ Carbon Content: 98% - 99%
✅ Sulfur Content: 0.5% - 3% (varies by grade)
✅ Porosity: High, making it suitable for anode production
✅ Good Electrical Conductivity
Applications:
✅ Used in the production of carbon anodes for aluminum smelting.
✅ Used as a recarburizer in steelmaking and foundries.
✅ Used in the production of graphite electrodes.
