Petcoke is a co-product of several processes used during petroleum refining to upgrade "residuum" into gasoline and middle distillate-range fuels. Residuum (or resid) is the …
Other impurities within petcoke are trapped in the clinker.[6] Because of this, cement kiln operations which are fueled using petcoke result in lower emissions than other operations that use petcoke. For example, industrial sized furnaces which use petcoke do not have this scrubbing effect and therefore have higher emission levels. [6]

Petcoke handlers on Chicago's Southeast Side have agreed to pay more than $1.4 million to settle a class-action lawsuit after residents were exposed to clouds of the dust.
Contra Costa Public Health said the Martinez Refinery released petroleum coke dust Friday during maintenance work. A hazmat team is investigating the release of petroleum coke dust at the Martinez ...
1.4.3 Petroleum coke. Petroleum coke is a byproduct of petroleum refining, useful in the production of electrodes used as carbon anodes for the aluminum industry, graphite electrodes for steel making, as fuel in the firing of solid fuel boilers used to generate electricity, and as a fuel for cement kilns [32].
Petroleum coke or petcoke is a final carbon-rich solid material and residual waste material extracted from oil refining. It is a spongy, solid residue from oil distillation that can be burned for fuel similar to coal. ... Petcoke is also a source of fine dust and can cause serious health problems to humans. The United States Environmental ...
The bill, crafted by Madigan's office and Rep. Barbara Flynn Currie, D-25th, would require facilities used for trans-loading of coal, metallurgical coke and petroleum coke to fully enclose the ...
Bharat Petroleum Corp uses petcoke produced at its 120,000 bpd Bina refinery in central India to generate power, its head of refineries, R. Ramachandran, said. HPCL-Mittal Energy (HMEL) is ...
Even at the time, experts recognized that petcoke dust is a form of PM10—the airborne particulate matter that's just the right size to sneak into the human respiratory system and trigger asthma...
Passed in December 2014, regulations now require petcoke and coal storage companies within the Chicago city limits to completely enclose operations due to complaints over excessive dust emissions. These rules are intended to drive ALL petcoke storage operations out of Chicago. This is not a matter of mere speculation; it's a point of record.
0. Petroleum coke, also known as petcoke, is a solid carbon-rich material that is produced during the refining of crude oil. It is typically a byproduct of the refining process, and is produced when heavy crude oil is processed to produce gasoline, diesel fuel, and other refined products. The refining process involves heating the crude oil to ...
Representative range values for properties of petcoke 2,3 Calcined petroleum coke is derived from green coke by heating to high temperatures (> 1,200°C). This process removes virtually all of the hydrocarbon content (i.e. to < 0.1%). It is common to use a fine water spray containing surfactants to suppress dust.
The petroleum industry and federal regulators characterize petcoke as a "co-product" because it may have some commercial value as a boiler fuel and as a raw material in manufacturing. Nearly half of U.S. petroleum refineries employ "coking" processes. Refineries also produce petcoke as a by-product of catalysis, which refineries later …

Our group company, 'HWTC GROUP', is engaged in the edible & industrial salt, marine gypsum, building construction, activated carbon, …
The use of petcoke has enabled many North American businesses to remain competitive in the global marketplace while employing thousands of people in manufacturing jobs with good wages and benefits. Material Safety Data sheets for petcoke indicate it is non-toxic and non-carcinogenic and the EPA does not consider petroleum coke a hazardous ...
Recently, the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) drew attention by issuing a toxicity assessment of petroleum coke dust, in conjunction with its permitting of a coke storage ...
At a government meeting, local residents stated that the petcoke dust "collects on homes and cars. It prevents people from being able to enjoy outdoor spaces. It impedes …
Petroleum coke (petcoke) is a granular coal-like product that is separated during the refinement of crude oil. Coking is not a new technology, as the first modern …
To prevent petcoke from piling up, the U.S. sells its stores of fuel grade petcoke, mostly to Asia where environmental regulations tend to be less stringent. With as much as 9% sulfur along with elevated levels of nickel and vanadium, burning petcoke emits particulates, sulfates, and other air contaminants that degrade the environment …
Total Safety studied the dust exposure potential of a petroleum coke handling operation at a large refinery that shipped its coke on ocean going vessels. Particle size analysis of the bulk coke product indicated that throughout the material handling process, more than 65% was smaller than the 40 mesh or 425 micrometer size that …
Calcined petroleum coke is used for the production of carbon anodes in the Hall-Héroult aluminum smelting process due to a combination of low impurity levels, ready availability, and relatively low cost.

Olga Bautista, a community organiser who lives about a mile from the petcoke mounds, says she and her neighbours regularly have to use high-pressure hoses to wash the black petcoke dust from the outside of their homes. Worse, whenever Bautista opens her windows, she finds the fine black powder collecting in the corners of her …
The technology has been proven to effectively control dust by pulling particles out of the air and dragging them to the ground using a fraction of the water, thus avoiding massive runoff. Petcoke dust particles are similar in mass to coal dust, averaging around 50 to 100 microns (μm) in size. [6] Gravity generally causes rainwater to form ...
