Albany - NY, Oct. 20, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The report analyzes two major segments in the petroleum coke market - fuel grade coke and calcined coke. The former is projected to remain the predominant segment globally because it is regarded as being more cost competitive than coal and natural gas. The other key advantage that pet coke carries is its high calorific value as compared to coal and natural gas. Data analyzed in the report also shows that increasing aluminum production will trigger high demand for calcined pet coke. On the flip side, the pollution-causing attributes of petroleum coke and the detrimental effects of the same will likely impede the growth of the petcoke market. In this context, participants in the pet coke market can engage in petcoke gasification to produce clean power and enhance profit margins.
