From the appearance of petroleum coke , coke is irregularly shaped, black lumps (or particles) of various sizes, metallic luster, and coke particles have a porous structure. The main elemental composition is carbon, which accounts for 80wt% The English abbreviation of Weight means the weight percentage content. 5WT% is equivalent to more than 50,000 PPM (PPM is in millions of content), and the rest are hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and metal elements. http://www.ferroeast.com/know/petroleum-coke.html Petroleum coke has its unique physical, chemical and mechanical properties. It is a non-volatile carbon that generates heat, and volatiles and mineral impurities (sulfur, metal compounds, water, ash, etc.) determine the chemical properties of coke. Petroleum coke can be used in graphite, sm...
