The report compares operational information for two coke charging cars operating to reduce charging emissions from the Brown's Island battery of National Steel's Weirton Steel Division with that for a larry car developed jointly by the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and the U.S. EPA. A direct comparison is made in areas where similarities between the two designs are strong; in areas with contrasting features or procedures, their success is reported relative to design intent and EPA objectives. Facts presented by the report originated in three areas: a description of the Weirton coking system, including oven configuration, larry car operation, and general coke oven charging procedures; observation of the two Weirton larry cars during coal charging operation; and interviews with coke plant personnel responsible for operating the larry cars.
