Comparison of by-product and heat-recovery cokemaking technologies

This paper describes comparison of the heat-recovery and by-product cokemaking technologies. Different conditions of the plant, such as availability and cost of energy sources, site area, plant configuration can play a key role in cokemaking technology selection process. Two studies for cokemaking technology selection using methodology developed by Hatch has been shown with different technology chosen in each case due to influence of the different key factors.
