Petroleum coke

Petroleum coke or petcoke is a product produced from all types of oil(light/heavy crudes) during the oil refining process. 

Petroleum coke is a valuable and essential commercial product that is used directly in a wide range of applications including aluminium manufacturing, fuels, steel, glass, cement, paint, and fertilizers. 

There are four basic types of petroleum coke, namely, Needle coke, Honeycomb coke, Sponge coke and Shot coke. Different types of petroleum coke have different microstructures due to differences in operating variables and the nature of the feedstock. Significant differences are also to be observed in the properties of the different types of coke, particularly ash and volatile matter contents. Needle coke, also called acicular coke, is a highly crystalline petroleum coke used in the production of electrodes for steel and aluminium industries. 

We imported pet coke from all over the world to support the increasing demand of the Chinese industry, especially for low sulfur content pet coke and needle coke.
