Abstract

Under non-isothermal conditions, thermogravimetric analysis was applied to study carbon dioxide gasification of three metallurgical cokes. The cokes selected for the study were named Coke A, Coke B and Coke C. The experimental data are fitted using four common gas-solid kinetic models: the homogeneous model, the sharp interface model, the traditional model and the random pore model. It is found that the random pore model most closely reflects the kinetic behavior of coke gasification characteristics. Using the random pore model, the apparent activation energies for gasification of Coke A, Coke B, and Coke C were calculated to be 139.08, 127.78, and 116.32 kJ mol–1, respectively.
