1. Quality evaluation of metallurgical coke produced with sawdust and different mixtures of coal
Abstract The present research is dedicated to analyzing the addition of sawdust biomass, which is a carbonaceous raw material that may be used in coal blends for the production of metallurgical coke, preserving the required quality, with lower cost. The quality of metallurgical coke may be determined by the efficiency of its chemical, physical and thermal fu

3. Effect of high petroleum coke additions on metallurgical coke quality and optical texture
Abstract The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of high additions of petroleum coke on the rheological properties of coking coal and the quality of cokes produced on pilot scale at the Usiminas R&D Center. For this purpose, blends using petroleum coke additions of 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% were produced. The results showed that the ble

4. Influence of moisture and particle size on coal blend bulk density
Abstract Coal blend bulk density is an important property in the coking process. Some variables, such as moisture and particle size, which are controlled or measured in the coal beneficiation process in steel mills, exert a strong influence on this feature. This study aims to understand the density variation of coal blends by the influence of moisture and pa

5. Combustibility behavior of PCI coals, green petroleum coke and charcoal fines used as fuel for injection into blast furnace tuyeres
Abstract Pulverized coal injection (PCI) into blast furnace tuyeres is widely used by integrated steel mills worldwide to reduce the consumption of coke and costs. High injection rates are desirable. The big challenge is to achieve them with cheaper and lower quality raw materials, without losing the quality of the hot metal and the productivity of the blast

6. EVALUATION OF BIOMASS AND COAL CO-GASIFICATION OF BRAZILIAN FEEDSTOCK USING A CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM MODEL
Abstract Coal and biomass are energy sources with great potential for use in Brazil. Coal-biomass co-gasification enables the combination of the positive characteristics of each fuel, besides leading to a cleaner use of coal. The present study evaluates the potential of co-gasification of binary coal-biomass blends using sources widely available in Brazil. T

7. Characterization of Metallurgical Coke Produced with Coal Mixtures and Waste Tires
The use of scrap tires in the coal blends is an alternative to reduction of coke production costs as well as mitigates the impact caused by tire accumulation in the environment. Tests were carried out on a pilot scale, with coal blends and waste tire in 4 levels and 3 particle sizes, in order to assess the impact on the produced coke quality, especially on t

8. Combustibility and reactivity of coal blends and charcoal fines aiming use in ironmaking
Charcoal is a very important reducing agent in Brazil, the world’s largest steel industry based on charcoal blast furnace. Charcoal generates large amounts of charcoal fines during its production and processing. A good alternative for harnessing this fuel is the injection into coke-based blast furnaces via PCI process (Pulverized Coal Injection), a key tec

9. Reactivity of brazilian coal, charcoal, imported coal and blends aiming to their injection into blast furnaces
For about 10 years the steel industry in Brazil has used pulverized coal injection (PCI) technology in the blast furnaces based on imported coals. In order to decrease the dependence on imported coals, Brazilian coal, which has limited use due to high ash content, was suggested to be mixed with imported coal and charcoal. The aim was to examine the reactivit

10. Thermal analysis evaluation of the reactivity of coal mixtures for injection in the blast furnace
Pulverized Coal Injection (PCI) is an important standard technology replacing coke partially by pulverized coal into the blast furnace that allows a significant reduction of hot metal costs and environmental impact, contributing to a decrease of coke requirements for ironmaking. Coals typically used in this process in Brazil are, at current time, exclusively
