Gabakhinsk coking plant supplies the Soviet nonferrous sector with a sour coke for nickel and copper matte processes as well as limestone kilns in the building sector. Sulphur is desirable in this type of coke, and the sour breeze addition was made with this in mind, replacing poorly-caking coals from the Kuznetsk coalfield. The breeze was lower in volatiles than the low-caking coal, contained less ash and more sulphur (4.4 as against 0.32%). With increasing additions the coke reactivity in terms of carbon monoxide, atmospheric oxygen and ferrous oxides was noticeably reduced. The breeze addition showed useful effects in terms of coke economy, lower ash and higher sulphur and adapted well to nonferrous conditions.
