How to calculate coal consumption per ton of coke produced

2016-11-20View Original

Thread Content

The plan is to produce 80,000 tons of coke this month (with 5% moisture content). It is planned to use 105,000 tons of raw coal (with 8% moisture content). With 120 furnaces in operation per day, what is the amount of coal required per ton of coke produced? How many tons of coal are loaded into each furnace on average? And how many tons of coke is produced per furnace? How is this calculated?

According to the statistical reports from the national metallurgical sector (coking), the data regarding the coal consumption per ton of coke vary among different entities; some figures refer to coal with moisture content, coal consumption per ton of coke with 6% moisture, or dry coal, which introduces many uncertainties in comparative analysis. What indicators do people think should be used to ensure good comparability of data among different companies? (Coal chemical industry recruitment) A regression equation was established based on the data regarding dry coal consumption per ton of coke and volatile matter from several companies: (Coal chemical industry recruitment) Y=0.01*X+1.03, where Y represents the coal consumption per ton of coke on a dry basis (in t/t), and X represents the volatile matter content of the coal fed into the furnace (%). Experts are requested to verify this equation using the actual data from their own organizations. An error was reported. The calculated values and the actual values should be retained to two decimal places, and the error should preferably be indicated. Finally, consider the coefficients to make the formula more realistic.
