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. 1, record 1, English, - dry%20coal%20charging

En pratique, les réactions de l'oxygène et de la vapeur d'eau sur le charbon n'interviennent de façon notable qu'après que le charbon ait été décomposé par pyrolyse. Il suffit donc de considérer les réactions de O2 et H2O sur le carbone. (...) Au total, le carbone en présence d'oxygène et vapeur d'eau est transformé en un mélange de CO, CO2, H2, H2O.

La réaction de conversion est une réaction homogène en phase gazeuse très faiblement endothermique; la constante d'équilibre K croît donc faiblement avec la température et elle reste basse dans tout le domaine des températures considérées en pratique. La réaction est donc franchement réversible. Si elle n'intervient pas sur le taux de gazéification, elle joue un rôle déterminant sur la composition du gaz et notamment le rapport CO/H2. 1, record 9, French, - r%C3%A9action%20de%20conversion
