Calcined petroleum coke (CPC) is created from green petroleum coke (GPC), a by-product of refining crude oil. While CPC can be created using a number of processes -- including rotary kiln, hearth and vertical shaft technologies -- the high-temperature conversion from green coke to calcined coke alters the material in key three ways:

Rotary kilns have been used successfully for many years to produce calcined coke for the aluminium industry and they offer a high level of automation, performance and flexibility. Shaft calciners make a high bulk density, coarse particle size product and several papers have been published recently highlighting these benefits. This paper presents a …
Abstract. The vertical shaft calciner has been widely applied in China for CPC calcination. Its application, however, is restricted by its lower capacity, less automation and no waste heat recuperation. A new generation of energy saving shaft calciner technology with higher capacity and power generation system has been developed recently and ...

Abstract. Due to the floating nature of calcined petroleum coke (CPC) in the marketplace globally in terms of supply and quality, it is always discussed to introduce vertical shaft kiln (VSK) CPC for anode manufacturing and to perform several studies based on trials to apprehend the anode quality as an impact to outline the finest or optimum ...

As with the PFR kiln, the kiln charge consists of crushed and screened limestone or dolomite. The grain sizes are typically 40 to 80 mm or smaller. The kiln shafts are also completely filled with the material to be processed but the kiln charge passes the lime kiln at a higher speed - typically two meters per hour.
However, in China, the majority of calcination processes take place in a vertical shaft calciner 1 because of its many advantages, such as stable calcination …
Shaft kilns constitute majority of all the kilns presently being used for the production of lime. The types of shaft kilns are (i) mixed feed shaft kiln (MFSK), (ii) parallel flow regenerative kiln (PFRK), (iii) annular shaft kiln (ASK), and (iv) other kilns. Shaft kilns are vertical in design, upto 30 m (metres) in height and with a diameter ...
2.1. Rotary kiln technology. Uses a rotating horizontal cylinder of steel lined with refractory bricks of high alumina content on the inside. The diameter of rotary kilns is typically …

This process is carried out in a calcining rotary kiln. A typical kiln for petroleum coke is about 60 m long with a diameter of 2.5 m. The kiln is tilted by an angle of about 2–5° and rotates at speeds of 2–4 rpm. Air (primary and secondary) for combustion is injected through the burner at the solids discharge end of the kiln.

Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) is produced from calcined coke technology by heating coke to a high temperature of 550-1,150 °C using a rotary kiln or vertical shaft kiln. The calcination process mostly determines the characteristic quality of the petroleum coke produced. This study will compare the advantages of product characteristics ...
Calcined coke is the best material for making carbon anodes for smelting of alumina to aluminum. Petroleum coke is usually calcined in a gas-fired rotary kiln or rotary hearth at high temperatures, around 1200 to 1450 °C, to remove moisture, drive off volatile matters, increase the density of the coke, increase physical strength, and electrical conductivity …
which calcinations can be managed with shaft technology, as against the poor bulk densities which result from such GPCs if calcined in a rotary kiln. The long resident time of coke with shaft technology enables a higher degree of calcination i.e. higher real density for a correspondingly significant lower calcining temperature than in rotary kilns.
grain size of the CPC produced by vertical shaft kiln [1]. Vertical shaft calcining improves the grain size of CPC produced due to the agglomeration effect and results in …
This approach has been found on single shaft using natural gas [13,14] or heavy oil as fuel [15], ASK with natural gas as fuel [16,17], and mixed-feed shaft kilns with coke [18,19]. ...

Rate-based Simulation of Coke Calcination in Rotary Kilns. It is found that the rate-based simulation can be implemented as a useful tool to predict the operating conditions needed to control the content of undesirable impurities in the calcined petroleum coke, namely, sulfur, volatile matter and moisture contents.
The remaining coke is known as densification (shrinkage of coke construction). These reactions are incorporated in the Calcined Coke Zone, which degrades from 1000 to 1400 °C at the end of the kiln. [19]. 2.2.3 Vertical Shaft Kiln Technology The vertical shaft kiln used the principle of gravity.
Early calcining of petroleum coke used both electric and gas fired vertical calciners,2 the latter being a likely predecessor of the shaft calcining technology still used today in some parts of Russia and extensively in China. Electric calciners were used first, followed by the gas-fired …
