Innovative Process to Enrich Carbon Content of EFB-Derived Biochar as an Alternative Energy Source in Ironmaking

Table 1

Comparison of EFB-derived biochar and carbon-infiltrated biochar with the commercial coke breeze.

Material	EFB biochar	C-infiltrated biochar	Coke breeze
Particle size (mm)	1.0–3.0	1.0–3.0	0.0–3.0
Carbon content (%mass)	62.9–64.4	68.7–70.5	75.0–85.0
Calorific value (d.b.) (MJ/kg)	22.9–24.3	25.3–27.2	27.9–30.2

d.b. = dry basis; data collected from the previous study [3].
