In high temperature carbonisation (as compared to low temperature carbonisation) of coal___________________?

Correct answer: D. All A., B. and C.

  • A. Coke oven gas yield is more
  • B. Tar yield is less but free carbon in tar is more
  • C. Calorific value of coke oven gas is less
  • D. All A., B. and C.

Explanation

High-temperature carbonisation produces more coke-oven gas, while the tar yield falls and its free-carbon content rises. The gas also contains more hydrogen and less methane, giving it a lower calorific value, so all three statements apply.
