Carbonization
The carbonisation of coal is carried out commercially for the production of coke for the iron and steel industry blast furnaces. The process involves heating coking coal in the absence of air to a temperature of around 1100°C. This is carried out in a coke oven and the coking time is around 14-20 hours. The gases and liquids evolved during the process are used on site for their energy content or sold as plant products. In a process very little used today, town gas can also be prepared by carbonisation, with the resulting coke being used as a domestic fuel.
