In high temperature carbonisation of coal compared to low temperature carbonisation ?

Correct answer: C. H2 content in the coke oven gas is more

  • A. Yield of ammonia is less
  • B. Aromatic content of tar is low
  • C. H2 content in the coke oven gas is more
  • D. Calorific value of the coke oven gas is lower

Explanation

High-temperature carbonisation produces coke-oven gas richer in hydrogen, while low-temperature carbonisation gives gas richer in heavier hydrocarbons. Hence, the hydrogen content is higher in the high-temperature process.
