The gasification reaction rates by $CO_2$ in $CO/CO_2/N_2$ of various compositions in the temperature range of $900-1200^{\circ}C$ were measured for foundry coke and anthracite lump. The data for the rates was analyzed with Langmuir-Hinshelwood rate equations for the gasification of carbonaceous specimens. The values of the apparent activation energies of the reactions obtained from these data were ranged to be 47-99 and 73-128Kcal/mol respectively for foundry coke and for anthracite lump. The major contribution to decrease in tensile strength was shown to be attributable to the enlarging of the macropores in the coke and that of crack in the anthracite lump. Under the same experiment of the gasification of foundry coke, the rate of form coke was increasing as the addition of $Fe_2O_3$ increases.

The effect of channel-system of zeolite on methanol-to-DME reaction was studied. Results revealed that channels size and topology affect catalyst lifetime, type and location of coke precursors. FER and MFI showed the best resistance towards coke deposition, whilst fast deactivation was observed on MOR. Although the higher concentration and strength of acid sites, FER structure formed a lower coke amount, preferably located within the pores, while coke cluster deposited on the external surface of MOR. Analysis of acid sites distribution and strength was performed during deactivation-regeneration process. Coke location assessment was also supported by molecular simulations.

The influence of ground petroleum coke, preheat-treated at temperatures ranged of 150~35$0^{\circ}C$, was studied. It has been found that the coke powder preheat-treated at the temperature of 175$^{\circ}C$ has been spherical-shaped in grinding and have showed the highest strength and density in sintering. The coke powder was also the best for the binding force and the (H/C) values showed 0.45 at the above temperature.

The effect of temperature on the structural changes of petroleum raw coke during calcination was studied and then the properties of carbon solids prepared from those calcined coke using binder were examined. The notable structural change of raw coke was observed in the range from 800$^{\circ}C$ to 900$^{\circ}C$ from the results of volatile matter, porosity, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The bending strength, density of the carbon solid carbonized at 1400$^{\circ}C$ was 400 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 1.40g/㎤, respectively.

Coke strength was increased by adding ash-free coal (AFC) binder. In this study, the effect of the AFC binder on the physical and chemical properties of coke was experimentally investigated to understand the molecular mechanism for the improved coke strength. For reduced $CO_2$ emission in steelmaking industry, torrefied biomass fuel mixed with coal binder is also considered. The interface between the base coal and AFC was thus examined using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The coke strength was commonly measured by performing the indirect tensile test and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ modes. For comprehensive mechanism study of the enhanced coke strength thus obtained, ordinary coal for thermal power plant use was carbonized with AFC for subsequent SEM examination. The NMR spectroscopy results of coke samples positively revealed that the tensile strength was proportional to the average number of aromatic rings.

The aim of this study is to produce the coke which can be used for the production of ferroalloy, by mixing phenolic resin and anthracite and sintering it. The influence of factors on the strength of coke were investigated. The results of this study are as follows: It is found that the anthracite coke of $100{\sim}150\;kgf/cm^2$ strength for ferroalloy can be made by a series of process as follows; Mixing homogeneously 6% liquefied phenolic resin and 6% water with $35{\sim}325$ mesh anthracite of low ash content. Making pellet by press the mixture in $10-50\;kgf/cm^2$ pressure. Dehydrating the pellet for 6 hrs at $50^{\circ}C$, and hardening it for 180 min at $200^{\circ}C$. Sinter the mixture for 6 hrs at $1,200^{\circ}C$.

This study is on the increasement of strength about soft ground improvement material using waste residual(paper fly ash, coke ash, slag) by fire. Through this study the authors have analyzed the strength improvement of mixed soft silty sand with improvement materials. The strength of mixed soils with high mixture ratio and more curing days increased. But CA-30(cokes 60%) make more low strength improvement than others. Therefore the authors find out that paper fly ash+cokes, paper fly ash+slag or cokes+slag improvement material is more effect in improvement of soft silty sand than cokes+cenlent. And Ettringite reaction is free mixed soils with more than two materials.

In this study, Al₂O₃ and H-ZSM-5 were coated on the inner wall of the stainless steel tube for the stable use of liquid hydrocarbon fuel and an endothermic catalyst used as coolant for hypersonic flying vehicles. Coke production is inevitable by the endothermic decomposition reaction of the liquid hydrocarbon fuel, and Fe, Ni metals induce the production of the filamentous coke by using a stainless steel tube reactor as a cooling channel. By coating the stainless steel with H-ZSM-5, Fe and Ni metals are prevented from being directly exposed to the liquid hydrocarbon fuel, and the formation of the filamentous coke is inhibited. In addition, Al₂O₃ is coated between the stainless steel and H-ZSM-5 to enhance adhesion bond strength.

Green pitch coke with an average particle size of 2 mm was adopted as densifier and added to the raw materials of conventional A3-3 matrix graphite (MG) to prepare modified A3-3 matrix graphite (MMG) by the quasi-isostatic molding method. The structure, mechanical and thermal properties were assessed. Compared with MG, MMG had a more compact structure, and exhibited improved properties of higher mechanical strength, higher thermal conductivity and better molten salt barrier performance. Notably, under the same infiltration pressure of 5 atm, the fluoride salt occupation of MMG was only 0.26 wt%, whereas it was 15.82 wt% for MG. The densification effect of green pitch coke endowed MMG with improved properties for potential use in the spherical fuel elements of molten salt reactor.

In this paper, a feasible strategy for the recycling of nuclear graphite is reported, based on the formation mechanism and the removal of carbon-14 by micro-oxidation. We investigated whether ground micro-oxidation graphite could be used as a filler to make new recycled graphite and which graphite/pitch coke ratio will give the recycled graphite outstanding properties (e.g., apparent density, flexural strength, compressive strength, and tensile strength). According to the existing properties of nuclear graphite, the ratio of graphite to pitch coke should not exceed 3. The recycled reactor graphite has been proven superior in density, strength, and thermal conductivity. The micro-oxidation process enhances the strength of the recycled graphite because there are more pores and unsmooth surfaces on the oxidized graphite particles, which is beneficial for the access of the pitch binder and leads to efficient joint adhesion among the graphite particles.
