Standard Test Method for Determination of Bulk Density for Specific Size Fractions of Calcined Petroleum Coke Using a Transaxial Pressure Pycnometer

Importancia y uso:

5.1 The bulk density is an indicator of calcined petroleum coke porosity and packing capability which is an important coke property for anode production in aluminum industry. This procedure will allow an automated measurement of specific sized fractions ranging from 8 mm to 0.25 mm coke particles.

5.2 Results from this test method are used in determining coke specifications, classification purposes, and for quality control.
