An investigation of coke properties within an individual oven was carried out using an oven being taken out of service. The coke mass was quenched in place, and after the battery had cooled, samples were obtained from a number of locations as the coke was dug out of the oven by hand. Physical, chemical and petrographic tests were conducted to determine the variability of the coke. The results showed that there is a variation in some properties of coke within an individual commercial oven, especially in stability determined by the ASTM Tumbler Test and coal blend composition in the cokes determined microscopically.
