Cokings
Cokings is a relatively uncommon term that may be used to refer to the coking process in general, the industrial units where coke is produced, or the individual instances of such processing. In most sources, the activities are described using the terms coking, coke production, or delayed coking rather than the plural “cokings.” When used, cokings typically denote multiple coking operations or facilities operating at once.
Coal-based coking involves heating coal in coke ovens or batteries in the absence of air to produce
Delayed coking is a distinct refinery process used to convert heavy hydrocarbon residues into lighter products
Uses and significance: Metallurgical coke made from coal is a primary reducing agent in traditional blast furnaces.
Etymology and terminology vary, with most literature favoring coke production or coking over the plural cokings.
