Description

Hard coke of coal is a dense, carbon‑rich solid used primarily as a reducing agent in the steel‑making industry, especially in blast furnaces for iron smelting.

Export Considerations

When shipping hard coke, containers should be sealed to prevent moisture ingress, and the cargo is typically transported in bulk bulk carriers or open‑top containers to accommodate its weight and volume.
