In low temperature carbonisation of coal as compared to high temperature carbonisation _____________ produced is less?

Correct answer: A. Difference in gross & net calorific value of the coke oven gas

  • A. Difference in gross & net calorific value of the coke oven gas
  • B. Free carbon content in tar
  • C. Yield percentage of coke
  • D. Yield of ammonia present in coke oven gas

Explanation

Low-temperature carbonisation produces coke-oven gas with a lower hydrogen proportion than high-temperature carbonisation, so less water vapour is formed during combustion. Consequently, its gross-to-net calorific-value difference is smaller.
