One method of further development of the coking industry to increase its efficiency is the adoption of the method of charge preheating before coking. However, the tendency of a heated charge to high particulates and gas emission in the charging process necessitates the development of a method of emission free charging of ovens. It was shown to be possible in principle to use pipeline transport and charging of preheated coal into ovens by means of superheated steam. In spite of the existing deficiencies in the technology and the design of the individual elements of the experimental charging system, preheated coal charged through pipelines (as with other charging methods) provides an increase in the capacity of the coke ovens and an improvement in the quality of the blast furnace coke.
