Global Metallurgical Coal Market overview
The coking coal or metallurgical coal is a low phosphorous and ash grade of coal. The demand for coking coal is increasing owing to manufacturer inclination towards innovations to produce high-grade coke. In the metallurgy and steel industry, it is one of the important reactants during the blast furnace process in the manufacturer of primary steel. The metallurgical coal has the property that contains carbon compounds and has a caking ability that can be distinguished easily from thermal coal. Besides, in the absence of air, it burns easily, softens on heating, and thus produces strong and low-density coke. Due to the volatile compounds presents in the coal, it can easily flow out through pores and easily evaporates this results in good aroma and coke swells when cooling.
Global Metallurgical Coal Market Dynamics
The expansion of the metal and infrastructure industry has increased the demand for Metallurgical coal over the forecast period. Also, the steel demand is coupled or depends on the demand for metallurgical coal. Besides, to produce 1 ton of steel approx.640 kg of coal is required. Also, the furnace is a vital process in steel making especially, in traditional oxygen-based furnace methods. China has the largest manufacturer and consumer of coking coal globally produced approx.854 million metric tons between 2016 to 2017 and expected to grow rapidly over the forecast period. Increasing demand for the metallurgical coal industry, particularly in developing countries has a positive impact on the metallurgical coal market. The increasing price in the metallurgical coal primarily due to supply deficits, this boosts the demand for the coking coal. Re-pricing is also one of the major factors that are affecting the steelmaking market globally.
The government initiatives for providing various types of subsidiaries and promotional activities have a positive impact on the metallurgical coal market. The companies are increasing investment in the metallurgical coal market owing to stable prices despite being the low prices of metallurgical coal. Thus, the metallurgical coal market is expected to expand over the forecast period.
