Energy data reports: distribution of oven and beehive coke and breeze in 1977

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5213253
This report shows in detail the distribution of oven and beehive coke and breeze produced in the United States in 1977. It covers shipments from the 65 known coke producers operating all or part of 1977. The data presented pertain only to coke produced from coal in oven- and beehive-coke plants. Breeze is the term applied to the small sizes of coke that result from screening. It usually includes pieces of coke that will pass through a 1/2-inch screen, although larger sizes are sometimes included. The tables show the amount of coke produced and distributed by principal use, State, and geographic region. Because the tonnage of beehive coke is very small, (0.4 million tons in 1977), it is included with oven coke. The statistics for several States are combined in tables 3, 4, and 5 to avoid disclosing individual company confidential data. Exports are shown as reported by producers; foreign shipments by export firms and wholesalers are not included.
