Coke oven gas treatment and process gas purification for coking plants and industrial facilities
Request advice on gas treatment technology
The treatment of coke oven gas is a key process in modern coking plants. It enables the safe and economical utilisation of valuable gas components, reduces emissions and lays the foundation for efficient product recovery. DMT supports operators of coking plants and industrial facilities with comprehensive expertise in coke oven gas purification, gas scrubbing and process optimisation.
Our experts combine decades of experience in process engineering, plant design, project management and operations with modern digital methods of process simulation. In this way, we develop sustainable and cost-effective solutions for new and existing plants worldwide.
DMT supports projects throughout the entire plant life cycle. From feasibility studies through to engineering and commissioning, you receive all services from a single source. We support both greenfield and brownfield projects, as well as EPC and EPCM projects.
Our services include:

With our expertise in coke oven gas treatment, we support you worldwide in operating your plants more safely, efficiently and effectively. I look forward to hearing from you.
Efficient coke oven gas treatment requires a thorough understanding of thermal and chemical processes. That is why we use state-of-the-art simulation tools and validated process models.
Our models accurately replicate the actual conditions in gas scrubbers, tar separators and gas purification plants. Based on empirically validated operating data, we can:
Our range of services also includes the planning and integration of Claus plants and other sulphur recovery processes.
Coke oven gas purification technologies can be successfully applied to other industrial applications. These include, amongst others:
By combining engineering expertise, digital process simulation and many years of operational experience, DMT develops cost-effective and sustainable solutions for a wide variety of process gases.
Together, we will develop the right solution for your plant, from the initial feasibility study right through to successful commissioning.
Coke oven gas treatment encompasses all processes involved in the purification, cooling and further processing of coke oven gas. The aim is to remove undesirable components and to recover valuable products such as sulphur, ammonia or BTX.
Typically, ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, hydrocyanic acid, naphthalene and aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene and xylene are removed.
A by-product recovery plant processes and purifies the raw gas produced during the coking process. At the same time, it enables the recovery of valuable by-products and improves the coking plant’s economic efficiency.
A bottleneck analysis identifies capacity constraints and process weaknesses. This enables targeted measures to be devised to increase throughput, efficiency and plant availability.
Yes. These technologies are also used successfully in natural gas processing, in refineries, in the chemical industry and in other industrial process gas applications.
