According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Calcined Anthracite Market Report by Technology (Gas Calcined Anthracite, Electrically Calcined Anthracite), Application (Pulverized Coal Injection (PCI), Basic Oxygen Steelmaking, Electric Arc Furnaces), End Use Industry (Iron and Steel, Aluminum, Pulp and Paper, Power Generation, Water Filtration, and Others), and Region 2025-2033," the global calcined anthracite market reached a value of USD 3.6 Billion in 2024. Calcined anthracite is a naturally occurring hard coal that is rich in carbon content and represents one of the highest levels of non-metamorphic coalification. It is generally heat-treated and produced by annealing anthracite coal in a horizontal gas furnace at an extreme temperature. Anthracite calcination is widely used in basic oxygen steelmaking, electric arc furnaces, pulverized coal injection (PCI) and as an alternative to calcined oil coke in the production of ductile and grey irons. It is also used as a recarburizer in ladle and blast furnaces for producing carbon blocks and tamping paste.
Global Calcined Anthracite Market Trends:
The increasing product demand in the steel manufacturing industry across the globe is creating a positive outlook for the market. Calcined anthracite is extensively used in steelmaking furnaces, such as electric arc, basic oxygen and blast furnaces. Additionally, the widespread product adoption as a filler in making electrode paste and ramming, carbon electrode, and carburizer is favoring the market growth. Additionally, the rising preferences toward calcined anthracite over conventional coal in the heating and power generation sector due to their eco-friendly properties, such as higher carbon percentage, lower ash, volatile matter, and moisture content, and fewer release of toxic gases, is augmenting the growth of the market. This is further supported by the rising demand for energy and rapid industrialization across the globe. Other factors, including the widespread product utilization in the aluminum industry as a smelting additive due to its high purity and consistency, extensive usage of filtration systems in wastewater management, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth. On account of the aforementioned factors, the market value is expected to reach USD 4.2 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 1.8% during 2025-2033.
