Abstract
Recently issues faced by cokemakers connected with availability of resources, coal quality and price, and environmental
concerns have led to the development of coal pre-treatment. Aiming the use of semi-coking coal, technologies for
increasing bulk density have been applied such as briquetting and coal moisture control (CMC) which have proved their benefits on
manufacturing of a strong metallurgical coke. This work showed coke with high quality regarding bulk density, CSR, DI and coke % > 25 mm was
produced from addition of briquettes 20% in the coal blend. For those cokes produced from CMC, coke containing moisture 4% in coal blend
presented better properties than cokes with excessive moisture. It was disclosed the effect of briquettes 20% on coke quality is equivalent to
produce coke with moisture 4%.
