Description

The coke production process is used to transform coking coal into coke, which is primarily utilized as a reducing agent and energy source in blast furnaces during iron and steel production. When using this dataset for life cycle assessment, it is crucial to account for emissions related to the coke production process. Ensure that the boundaries of coke production are clearly defined, including upstream coal extraction and associated processes. Consider technological applicability depending on the specific technology and efficiency of the assessed coke production plant. Exclusion of recycling should be justified based on the life cycle stage and intended application of the assessment.
