Coke making process and its environmental impacts: 1 Citation Coke making process and its environmental impacts:Coke is a solid carbon fuel and carbon source used to melt and reduce iron ore. Coke and coke by-products, including coke oven gas, are produced by the pyrolysis (heating in the absence of air) of suitable grades of coal. The process also includes the processing of coke oven gas to remove tar, ammonia (usually recovered as ammonium sulfate), phenol, naphthalene, light oil, and sulfur before the gas is used as fuel for heating the ovens.A.

Classification of coal based on volatile matter and coking power of clean material 1 Citation Classification of coal based on volatile matter and coking power of clean materialCoal is a readily combustible rock containing more than 50 percent by weight of carbonaceous material, formed from compaction and indurations of variously altered plant remains similar to those in peat.After a considerable amount of time, heat, and burial pressure, it is metamorphosed from peat to lignite. Lignite is considered to be "immature" coal at this stage of development because it is still somewhat light in, technorati.com

Environmental Impact of Fossil Fuel 1 Citation What are fossil fuels? Coal, oil, and natural gas are all decomposed of plant and animal matter buried deep in our Earth?s geological formations. This organic matter is mostly made up of carbon and hydrogen. When this carbon and hydrogen is burned, chemical energy is released. There is also impurities included in this organic composition such as sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen, and even ash which is derived from such process. These impurities when released are extremely hazardous to our environment, technorati.com
