Results for tag: "Calcined Petroleum Coke"

Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) is a by-product of the oil refining process. It is used as a fuel source in the production of gasoline and diesel. CPC is created when crude oil is heated to very high temperatures in a coker unit. The resulting material is a black, solid substance that is composed of carbon and other elements. CPC is used in the production of gasoline and diesel because it is a more efficient fuel source than crude oil. It is also used in the production of aluminum and steel. CPC is produced by a number of companies, including Valero Energy Corporation, Marathon Petroleum Corporation, Chevron Corporation, and Phillips 66. Show Less Read more
