Eight tons of CTC/DOE formed coke of 6 inches x 5 inches x 4 inches size were produced in the PDU. This coke will be tested at 100 percent formed coke charge in a commercial size foundry. A scheduled test run was postponed due to production requirements at the foundry. Foundry coke was produced from weakly coking Colorado coal. Blending of this coal with 40 percent of stronger caking, higher rank coals was required. Western coal from the Rosebud seam was pyrolyzed to upgrade this low rank, high moisture coal. The objective is to improve the coal as a fuel and to determine if an acceptable char or coke can be produced from this coal
