Summary: | The Unterzaucher method, used for the determination of oxygen in organic compounds and coal, has been adapted to the determination of oxygen in coke. Modifications were made to the conventional apparatus in order to eliminate any contribution made by the coke moisture to the determined oxygen content. The carbon dioxide produced from the combustion of the oxygen in the coke was estimated by a sensitive conductimetric method. Evidence is presented which indicates that additional liberation of oxygen from the coke mineral matter does not make a significant contribution to the total oxygen determined under the prescribed experimental conditions. The error of the determination is approximately 0.1%. A comparison is made between results obtained for a series of cokes and chars by the direct method and by an independent determination, based on neutron activation. |
