Abstract

To prevent the public from harmful emissions a further reduction of the air pollution is worldwide in the main focus of the authorities. For amendment of the environmental performance in the cokemaking industry ThyssenKrupp Uhde has developed and improved several processes to fulfill the ever increasing stringent environmental demands. New technologies were implemented at several new installations e.g. for low emission quench towers and for the application of the single chamber pressure control system PROven. These projects are now under realization at several sites worldwide. The paper will give an overview of the basic fundamentals and technological features of the applied processes, the actual status of the projects and the emissions reduction to be expected.
