Petroleum Coke (Calcined & Graphitized)

Petroleum Coke (Petcoke) is a byproduct of the oil refining process and is widely used in various industrial applications due to its high carbon content and energy density. It is available in two main forms: Calcined Petroleum Coke and Graphitized Petroleum Coke, each serving distinct industrial purposes.

At GGT Petrochemical, we provide high-quality Petroleum Coke sourced from trusted suppliers, offering both Calcined and Graphitized varieties to meet the diverse needs of industries such as steel manufacturing, aluminum production, and energy generation.

Calcined Petroleum Coke

Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) is produced by heating raw Petroleum Coke to very high temperatures in a rotary kiln, a process that removes volatile hydrocarbons and enhances its carbon content. This calcining process improves the material’s purity, making it an ideal component in the production of electrodes used in steel-making and aluminum production.

Applications of Calcined Petroleum Coke:

• Electrode Production: CPC is primarily used to manufacture carbon anodes for aluminum smelting and graphite electrodes used in electric arc furnaces.

• Steel Manufacturing: It is utilized in the steel industry as a carbon source to improve the quality of steel and as a raw material for the production of graphite.

Graphitized Petroleum Coke

Graphitized Petroleum Coke is a higher-value form of petroleum coke that is treated at even higher temperatures in a furnace to convert its carbon structure into graphite. This graphitization process enhances the electrical conductivity, thermal stability, and chemical resistance of the material, making it suitable for demanding applications.

Applications of Graphitized Petroleum Coke:

• Advanced Battery Manufacturing: Graphitized Petcoke is used in the production of high-performance anode materials for lithium-ion batteries and other energy storage solutions.

• Electronics and Conductive Materials: Due to its high electrical conductivity, it is used in the manufacture of electrical components, conductive materials, and graphite products.

• Steel Industry: Graphitized Petroleum Coke is utilized in specialized steelmaking processes where high carbon content and electrical conductivity are crucial.

Applications of Petroleum Coke (Both Calcined & Graphitized):

• Energy Generation: Both forms of petroleum coke can be used as fuel for cement kilns, power plants, and other energy-intensive industrial processes.

• Carbon Products: Used in the manufacturing of carbon additives, graphite electrodes, and carbon black for a variety of applications across multiple industries.
