The yield of tar from high temperature carbonisation of dry coal is about _______________ percent?

Correct answer: A. 3

  • A. 3
  • B. 12
  • C. 22
  • D. 0.3

Explanation

High-temperature carbonisation of coal is designed mainly to produce coke, and the associated tar yield is relatively small, typically about 3% of the coal charge. Lower-temperature carbonisation gives a substantially higher tar yield.
