Formation and quality of coal-tar sludge

The quantity of solid tar phase from a gas collector is calculated. The factors affecting its formation are discussed. The quantity of coal-tar sludge formed in the gas collector is determined. The influence of various factors on the formation and yield of sludge is considered: the batch preparation and coking; and the effectiveness of the mechanized clarifiers in byproduct-trapping shops. The solid phase of the sludge is investigated.
