In high temperature carbonisation (as compared to low temperature carbonisation) of coal, the______________?

Correct answer: D. Aromatic content of tar produced is more

  • A. Gas yield is less
  • B. Tar yield is more
  • C. Ignition temperature of coke produced is less
  • D. Aromatic content of tar produced is more

Explanation

High-temperature carbonisation produces tar with a greater proportion of aromatic compounds because stronger thermal cracking and condensation reactions occur. Low-temperature carbonisation generally gives more tar, but it is less aromatic.
