Graphitized Petroleum Coke, also known as Low Nitrogen Recarburiser, is a high-performance carbon additive specifically engineered for the modern steel manufacturing industry. By leveraging advanced graphitization processes, this material provides a superior carbon source that ensures rapid and efficient carbon enrichment in liquid steel, significantly optimizing production cycles for BOF and EAF operations.
Designed to meet the most stringent metallurgical standards, our Low Nitrogen Recarburiser eliminates the risks associated with traditional carbon additives. By drastically reducing nitrogen intake, it enhances the mechanical properties of the final steel product, including superior toughness and plasticity, while maintaining an eco-friendly footprint throughout the production chain.

| Comparison Metric | Traditional Recarburiser | Low Nitrogen Recarburiser |
|---|---|---|
| Nitrogen Content | High (Risk of Brittleness) | Ultra Low (≤ 300 PPM) |
| Production Cycle | Standard / Slower | Fast / Optimized |
| Steel Toughness | Moderate | High / Enhanced Plasticity |
| Environmental Impact | Higher Pollutants | Eco-Friendly / Green |
| Dissolution Speed | Variable | Uniform & Rapid |
By maintaining nitrogen levels below 300 PPM, it reduces nitrogen brittleness, which directly increases the toughness, plasticity, and overall structural durability of the steel product.
Generally, the amount of low nitrogen recarburiser added should not exceed 1% of the liquid steel, depending on specific product requirements and carbon targets.
To ensure complete melting and optimal carbon absorption, it should be added into the BOF at a temperature range between 1500°C and 1800°C.
Yes, it is specifically designed for addition during the tapping process of both Basic Oxygen Furnaces (BOF) and Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF).
We offer 1-ton Jumbo Bags, as well as 10kg or 25kg small bags packed within Jumbo Bags for easier handling and transport.
Uniform particle size prevents clumping and ensures the material dissolves evenly in the melt, leading to a consistent carbon distribution and avoiding quality defects in the steel.
