Coke oven gas produced by high temperature carbonisation of coal (as compared to that produced by low temperature carbonisation), has_________________?

Correct answer: D. Neither A. nor B.

  • A. Higher calorific value
  • B. Lower hydrogen content
  • C. Both A. and B.
  • D. Neither A. nor B.

Explanation

High-temperature carbonisation produces gas with more hydrogen and fewer heavy hydrocarbons, so its calorific value is generally lower than low-temperature carbonisation gas. Thus it has neither a higher calorific value nor a lower hydrogen content.
