On March 11, the first batch of high-end petroleum coke products designed specifically for power batteries, produced by Hunan Petrochemical, were shipped out via both rail and road routes to leading domestic power battery manufacturers. This marks an improvement in the quality of Hunan Petrochemical’s petroleum coke products, as well as new progress in the field of key materials for the new energy industry chain. The petroleum coke designed for use in power batteries, produced by this company, is one of the key raw materials for the anode materials of lithium-ion batteries. It features high purity and high electrical conductivity, and these properties have a direct impact on the energy density and cycle life of the batteries. The quality of this product is at a high level in China, and it enjoys high recognition among downstream customers; it is thus suitable to meet the demands of high-end power battery manufacturing. Since last year, Hunan Petrochemical has strengthened its cooperation with refining and marketing companies, seized the opportunity of strong demand for lithium battery anode materials, accelerated the trial production of storage coke, continuously optimized the product structure and technical parameters of petroleum coke, and promoted the transformation of petroleum coke products from fuels and smelting auxiliaries into high-end carbon materials. The team dedicated to improving the quality of petroleum coke focuses on addressing market and customer needs through collaborative efforts; it has overcome numerous challenges related to production processes. The quality of high-end anode-grade petroleum coke is stable, with a daily production capacity of up to 1,000 tons, and this product has received positive feedback from downstream customers.
