Kotloenergoprom Stock Co. has developed new technology of thermal rendering harmless andwaste recovering of heat of flue gases from coke-oven batteries in one unit.In 2000, Kotloenergoprom Stock Co. had executed the design of the first in the world Unit ofthermal rendering harmless and waste recovering of heat of flue gases from the coke-oven batteryNo. l installed in "Zaporozhkoks" (65 furnaces, H = 7.0 m, V = 41.6 m3).The complex "Coke-oven battery - Unit" operates in the special mode using automatic processcontrol system. Introduction the above Unit in 2002 had ensured: decrease of NOx contents influe gases from coke-oven battery in 1.5+2 times and CO on 90+ I 00 % with providinginternational norms of ejections; rebuming solid carbon inclusions and combustible components(H2, CH4, CmHn) in flue gases; stabilization of hydraulic mode of coke-oven battery operation;non-shock putting coke-oven battery into operation directly to chimney stack in case of scheduledor accident stopping the Unit; waste recovery of heat of flue gases from coke-oven battery inquantity up to 6.0 Gkal/h; producing up to 85 tph of steam with energetic parameters at additionalcombustion of coke-oven gas (without building new chimney stack), that lets to produceadditionally 6 MWt of electric power;Standard scheme of producing heat and electric power at by-product coke plants applying usualboiler houses and power stations is irrational. The more effective is to apply the scheme ofproducing heat and electric power with simultaneous rendering harmless and waste recovery ofheat of flue gases from coke-oven batteries in the special Units using existing chimney stacks ofcoke-oven batteries.Cost of building the Unit is not more than cost of usual boiler house or power station with equalcapacity.

Among numerous measures to accelerate the PC conversion within the blast furnace (BF) raceway, local increase of oxygen concentration is the most common one. On the other hand, the presence of cold media (oxygen) in the vicinity of the coal stream might affect its ignition and combustion negatively. A minor amount of coke oven gas (COG) may increase the temperature and consequently accelerate the coal conversion. To examine this effect, laboratory trials under blast furnace simulating conditions were performed using the Multifunctional Injection Rig for Ironmaking (MIRI). The results of the simulation testified a higher conversion degree of coal while adding the COG. The temperature increase is measurable in the reaction chamber and the off-gas stream. Optical microscopy of the original PC particles and residues after reaction confirm the findings of the off-gas analysis and the increase in temperature during the experiments with addition of COG. The thermogravimetric analysis was applied to determine and to compare the behaviour of coal in different atmospheres including an atmosphere with COG. A stand at one tuyère at a modern BF was erected and tests were performed targeting the observation of the ignition behaviour of coal at different COG rates, using a camera image analysis system. Laboratory trials under blast furnace raceway simulating conditions showed, that even a small amount of COG significantly improves the PC conversion degree. A new technology of PC injection, including addition of small amount of COG to the PC transporting gas, aimed at neutralization of the oxygen local cooling effect, elaborated, justified and tested.

This paper focuses on the best way to produce methanol by Coke Oven Gas (COG) conversion and by carbon dioxide capture. The COG, produced in steelworks and coking plants, is an interesting source of hydrogen that can be used to hydrogenate carbon dioxide, recovered from flue gases, into methanol. The architecture of the reuse process is developed and the different process units are compared by considering a hierarchical decomposition. Two case studies are selected, process units are modelled, and flowsheets are simulated using computer-aided design software. A factorial techno-economic analysis is performed together with a preliminary carbon balance to evaluate the economic reliability and the environmental sustainability of the proposed solutions. The production costs of methanol are equal to 228 and 268 €/ton for process configurations involving, respectively, a combined methane reforming of COG and a direct COG separation to recover hydrogen. This cost is slightly higher than the current price of methanol on the market (about 204 €/ton for a process located in the USA in 2013). Besides, the second case study shows an interesting reduction of the carbon footprint with respect to reference scenarios. The carbon dioxide capture from flue gases together with COG utilization can lead to a competitive and sustainable methanol production process depending partly on a carbon tax.

The performance of Ni/SiO2 Catalysts modified by La2O3, ZrO2 and CeO2 were tested in a BaCo0.7Fe0.2Nb0.1O3-δ (BCFNO) membrane reactor by catalytic partial oxidation of coke oven gas (COG) under atmospheric pressure. The results show that the oxygen permeation flux increased dramatically with Ni/RxOy/SiO2 (R = La, Zr or Ce) catalysts by adding the element of rare earth especially the La during the reforming reaction. At optimized reaction conditions, the dense oxygen permeable membrane had an oxygen permeation flux around 16.4 ml/cm2•min and a CH4 conversion of 99.2% have been achieved at 900 oC.
