2017-10-09

On September 27, the key technological innovation and industrialization demonstration project for the recovery and utilization of sensible heat from coke oven off-gas, in which our company participated, passed the acceptance review conducted by an expert panel organized by the China Iron and Steel Association.

The experts reviewed the relevant documents, conducted a thorough inquiry and discussion of the reported content, and ultimately reached a consensus: the project has fulfilled the tasks stipulated in the project charter, achieved the specified objectives, and is hereby approved for acceptance.

Since commissioning, the project has operated steadily, producing 131.97 kg of saturated steam at 0.6–0.9 MPa per ton of coke. The sensible heat recovery rate from raw coke oven gas stands at 41.06%, and energy consumption in the coking process has been reduced by 10.75 kg of standard coal per ton of coke, with a corresponding 29.95% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions. These achievements are of significant importance for enhancing both economic and social benefits.
