COKE DRY COOLING PLANT AND COMBINED HEAT AND POWER-STATION OF THE COKING PLANT KAISERSTUHL

The Coking Plant Kaiserstuhl has a coke dry cooling Plant. which in co ntrast to the generally existing wet quenching treatments fulfills all the prerequisites of environmental protection and of heat recovery. T he possibility of a comprehensive heat recovery by the coke dry coolin g plant leads to a considerable improvement of the thermal efficiency of the coking process. The steam, produced by the cooling gas in a was te heat boiler, can be used for electricity and process generation. Of the electricity generated in a combined heat and power station (25 MW ), 10 MW arc fed into the public grid The paper describes rhe chemical -technical concept of the coke dry cooling and the combined heat and p ower station.
