Experience in the operation of coke ovens of Batteries Nos. 1 and 4 of Stakhanov Coke and Chemical Plant made of large dinas-quartzite blocks has made it possible to confirm their technical advantages over ovens of normal small-piece refractories. Several years of observations of the surface condition of the concrete lining of coke ovens has shown that in general its resistance is at least as good as the resistance of the chamotte lining. The processes of graphitization of the coke battery concrete lining occur satisfactorily during service. To prolong the service life of refractory concrete batteries it is desirable to eliminate lining defects occurring in the initial period of service of batteries of blocks without delay. The recommended compositions of guniting compounds are quite effective for repair of the surface of dinas-quartzite concretes and possess good adhesion and life in the coking medium. Questions related to broadening of the introduction of concretes into the construction and repair of large-scale coke batteries are very pressing and require the continuation of investigations.
