The term means a product similar to coal and mined the same way. Some is made by using coking oven from coal. Coal is cheaper and that is why it is used more often. Coke is cleaner and other methods should be looked into before coal and oil run out.

Is coke a fossil fuel?
Absolulutely!! Coke is make by people and it's not living so...YES!!
Why is coke used in a lime kiln?
As the fuel to provide heat, and as the reducing agent.
What fuel sources have been used to heat furnaces for iron and steel production?
ore and coke
Which of the following is an example of fossil fuel natural gas coke?
coke
What does coke mean in technology?
Coke is a type of fuel made from coal.
What are the principal uses of petroleum coke?
petroleum coke is used primarily for heating in the eastern United States, where most of its manufacturers are based. This fuel is also used in aluminum anodes, furnace electrodes and liners
Fuel take from bogs?
coke
Difference between Metallurgic coke and petroleum coke?
Pet coke is a carbonaceous solid derived from oil refinery cracking processes. Marketable coke is coke that is relatively pure carbon and can be sold for use as fuel, in the manufacture of dry cells, electrodes, etc. Needle coke, also called acicular coke, is a highly crystalline petroleum coke used in the production of electrodes for the steel and aluminum industries. Catalyst coke is coke that has deposited on the catalysts used in oil refining, such as those in a catalytic cracker. This coke is impure and is only used for fuel. Petroleum coke's high heat and low ash make a good fuel for power generation in coal-fired boilers but is high in sulphur and low in volatile content which pose some environmental and technical problems with its combustion.Metallurgical coke is produced by destructive distillation of coal in coke ovens. Prepared coal is "coked" or heated in an oxygen-free atmosphere until all volatile components in the coal evapoarate. The remaining material is called "coke", sulphur content is low in this form. Most metallurgical coke is used in iron and steel industry processes such as blast furnaces, sinter plants, and foundries to reduce iron ore to iron. Over 90% of the total metallurgical coke production is dedicated to blast furnace operations.
Substance derived from carbonaceous fossil fuel?
coke
What is coke breeze?
Coke breeze (metallurgy) is the undersized screenings of coke (usually less than 10 mm).During coke production the screening operation is where pieces and dust too small for steel making are removed. Coke breeze is either reused on site (e.g. in the sinter plant) or sold off site as a by-product. Coke breeze can used as the basis of a building material (e.g. "breeze blocks" or "cinder blocks") or used as an industrial boiler fuel.
What is steel makers fuel?
Steel makers typically use coke, a type of solid fuel derived from coal, in the steelmaking process. Coke is used in blast furnaces to provide the necessary heat and carbon for the reduction of iron ore into molten iron, which is then used to make steel. Additionally, natural gas and electricity are also used as alternative fuels in some steel production processes.
Is coke used to oxidise slag?
Coke is not used to oxidize the slag . It is carbon that is used to oxidize slag.
