What is the minimum reached big size (nut coke not considered) coke rate in Blast Furnace world wide?

13 October 2023 0 4K Report

Dear colleagues, if somebody knows what is the current minimum coarse (nut coke not considered) coke rate in Blast Furnace world wide?

I heard, that in South Korea in Gwangyang Blast Furnace №2 BF operators reached 188 kg per 1 ton of hot metal coarse coke rate (+105 kg/tHM nut coke rate = 293 kg/tHM total skip coke rate) on monthly base in March 2009.
