New York, Sept. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Global Metallurgical Coke Market is predicted to increase at a 3.7% CAGR over the ensuing ten years (2023 to 2033). By the conclusion of the projection year, the market is expected to be worth US$ 307.5 billion, down to US$ 213.8 billion in 2023.
The Metallurgical Coke Market is a crucial segment of the global metallurgical industry, playing a pivotal role in the production of iron and steel. Metallurgical coke, often referred to as met coke or simply coke, is a key raw material in the steel manufacturing process.
This comprehensive research report delves into the various facets of the metallurgical coke market, providing insights into its current status, trends, key players, and future prospects.
Metallurgical coke is primarily used in the blast furnace process for the reduction of iron ore into molten iron, a fundamental step in steelmaking. It serves as a source of heat and carbon, enabling the removal of oxygen from iron ore, resulting in the production of pig iron. The metallurgical coke market's growth is closely tied to the global steel industry's performance.
