Related Mcqs:

1. Ash content in the coke produced from a coking coal having 20% ash may be around _____________ percent?

   A. 6
   B. 12
   C. 18

2. Prime coking coal is always blended with medium or non- coking coal before carbonisation__________________?

   A. To check against its excessive swelling during heating, which may exert high pressure and
   damage coke oven walls
   B. Because, it alone produces unreactive coke
   C. Both A. and B.
   D. Neither A. nor B.

3. Mineral matter content (M) and ash content A. in coal are approximately related as _______________?

   A. M = 1.1A
   B. M = A
   C. M = 1.5A
   D. M = 2A

4. Fusion point of coal ash generally varies from 1000 to 1700° C. Ash having fusion point less than _______________ °C is liable to form clinker?

   A. 1100
   B. 1250
   C. 1350

5. Volatile matter content in coking coal may be about _____________ percent?

   A. 1
   B. 7
   C. 22
   D. 46

6. A good coking coal should have high ______________ content?

   A. Ash
   B. Sulphur & phosphorus
   C. Moisture
   D. None of these

7. A coal with high ash content is undesirable, as________________?

   A. It is abrasive to the coal pulveriser (i.e. ball mill) and the combustion chamber
   B. The ash in molten condition gets absorbed in the pores of the refractory lining of the furnace
   and causes its spalling due to different co-efficient of expansion/contraction of the refractory
   and the ash
   C. The ash retains the sulphur & phosphorus and thus affects the quality of products in
   metallurgical furnace apart from increasing the slag volume. Besides, it may fuse and stick to
   the boiler tubes thereby reducing the heat transfer
   D. All A., B. and C.
