Petroleum Coke Market Regional Revenue, Trends, Opportunities and Future Prospects

The petroleum coke market is growing at a significant rate due to emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific region. As the largest importer of petroleum gas, Asia-Pacific dominates the petroleum coke market in terms of demand. In China, most of the petroleum coke is used in power plants for generating electricity, whereas in India most of the petroleum coke is used in cement kilns owing to rapid industrialization and increased population in the countries.

Crude oil leaves some residual crude when it is processed into diesel fuel, gasoline, lubricating oils, jet fuel, and waxes that undergo further processing. The crude residue is further refined by coking, a process to produce transportation fuels and petroleum coke, having a range of uses as an alternative and cost-effective fuel. The unprocessed coke directly out of the coker is called green coke and be converted into petroleum coke by coking processes which removes volatile hydrocarbons from the green coke.
