Purification of Zinc Oxide Using Direct Thermal Process by Petroleum Coke

The present investigation is concerned for the purification of impure zinc oxide (80-85 wt %) by using petroleum coke (carbon content is 76 wt %) as reducing agent for the impure zinc oxide to provide pure zinc vapor, which will be oxidized later by air to the pure zinc oxide. The operating conditi...
