Which of the following is not a recuperative furnace ?

Correct answer: D. Coke oven

  • A. Soaking pit
  • B. Reheating furnace
  • C. Steam boiler
  • D. Coke oven

Explanation

A coke oven normally uses regenerative heating, in which checker-brick chambers store and return heat, rather than a recuperator that transfers heat directly from flue gas to incoming air. Soaking pits and reheating furnaces commonly use recuperative heat recovery.
