CONT

The drying and preheating of coking coal prior to charging into coke ovens has interested coke oven designers for nearly fifty years ... A new impetus to solve the problems associated with such a system arose in the fifties, due mainly to the work carried out by CERCHAR in France culminating in the operation of dry coal charging at Hagondange.
