Japan’s second largest steel maker JFE Steel Corporation has placed an order with Paul Wurth IHI for the first stamp charged coke oven battery in Japan in June 2022. The new stamp charged coke oven battery consists of 52 ovens and is the first of its kind in Japan. The new facility will be constructed at JFE’s Fukuyama works and will have a capacity of 682,000 tonnes per year. The engineering of the projects has started. This project is expected to start operation in 2025. The scope includes the unique smokeless charging system together with the well-proven SOPRECO system. The smokeless charging system in combination with the SOPRECO system will significantly contribute to reducing emissions during the charging and the carbonization process. For charging, the new stamp charged coke oven battery Paul Wurth will supply the Stamping, Charging and Pushing machine on a turnkey basis and the charging gas transfer car based on its proven design.
