Introduction
Petroleum coke, or petcoke, is a by-product from the refining of crude oil. It consists mostly of carbon, with variable amounts of sulfurs and heavy metals. It has many industrial uses, including the production of batteries, steel, and aluminum. Lower grade petcoke, which contains higher concentrations of sulfur, is used as fuel in coal-fired power plants and cement kilns.
Global Petcoke Market – Market Dynamics
Major driver of the petcoke is increasing use of gasification process. Gasification of petcoke is a favourable technique since it can capture most of the energy content and is environmental friendly. However, petcoke gasifiers are large and entail a heavy capex.
There is another advantage in using petcoke in cement kilns. As petcoke has zero ash content, cement firms can use low-grade limestone. This is a big advantage as almost 60% of India’s limestone reserves is a low grade in nature and cannot be used if coal (that has significant ash content) is used as fuel.
However, stringent environmental regulations towards the use of petroleum coke due to its high sulfur content is anticipated to hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period.
