Evaluation of the possibilities of applying fractal analysis for the characterization of molecular arrangement of carbon deposits in comparison to conventional instrumental methods

Electrochemical graphitization transformation of deposited carbon for Li-ion storage: sustainable energy utilization from coke oven solid waste

“…These spacings may originate from natural growth during DC generation in coke ovens or from DC fragmentation prior to electrolysis. 20 At the early stage of electrolysis, the surface of EP-4 h is densely wrinkled. These complex morphological changes are accompanied by the generation of local fractures in the samples, which was probably ascribed to the differences in the mechanical properties of different components under complex physical and chemical conditions.…”

“…DC is generated by the pyrolysis of crude gas in the coking process and commonly found in coking chambers and ascension pipes. 19,20 DC that causes uneven temperature in the coking chamber and hinders coke pushing 19 is harmful to coking production. The potential output of DC in coke ovens is relatively large, which is directly related to the operating system of coking enterprises.…”
