Calcined Petroleum Coke

Calcined petroleum coke is a high purity carbon material produced by heating green petroleum coke to drive off moisture, volatile matter, and impurities and to increase its electrical conductivity.

​

The aluminum industry is the biggest consumer of calcined petroleum coke, with 80% of the demand for this carbon material.

​

The balance of 20% of calcined coke demand originates from the steel and chemical industries, mostly as recarburizer and the manufacture of titanium dioxide pigment.
