from these dirty gaseous streams are available, yet implementation has been limited due to high capital investment costs.60 This study investigated waste heat losses in both integrated steel mills and mini­mills. In integrated steel mills, which account for about 54% of U.S. raw steel production in 1999,61 processes analyzed included coke making, blast furnace ironmaking, and basic oxygen furnace steelmaking. In the mini­mill, exhaust gases from electric arc furnaces were analyzed. Waste heat from these processes total about 79 TBtu/yr based on a reference temperature of 77°F [25°C] (Table 12).

Coke is produced in coke ovens, where coal is heated in an oxygen­limited environment. There are two methods for producing coke: the byproduct process and the non­recovery process. In the byproduct process, chemical byproducts (tar, ammonia, and light oils) in the coke oven gas are recovered, while the remaining coke oven gas is cleaned and recycled within the steel plant. In the non­recovery process, all the coke oven gas is burned in the process. The most common type of process is still the byproduct process, which is the focus of our discussion here. Byproduct coke­making process (Figure 22) has two sites of sensible heat loss: a) coke oven gas that is cooled in the gas cleaning process and b) waste gas exiting the coke oven. The coke making process employs several coke oven chambers separated by heating flues. Recycled coke oven gas (COG), and sometimes other gases such as blast furnace gas, are used as the fuel source in the heating flue and supply heat to the oven chamber where coal pyrolysis takes place. As coal is pyrolyzed in the oven chamber, gas and moisture (accounting for about 8­11 mass % of charged coal) are driven off and exit through the 37 ­ Efficiency Potential TBtu/yr
