And yes, pet-coke is left-overs from refining but is also an ingredient in commercial “charcoal” like Kingsford briquets.

Thanks again to the great entrepreneurs of the the early 1900’s such as Messrs, Firestone, Kingsford and Ford. My BBQ is infinitely better because of them!

According to the article, Peters owns shares in Total Petrochemicals, the French company’s U.S. subsidiary. There are many other refineries that produce Petroleum Coke. I used to work for a company that owned one of the larger process designs that was commonly used.

I never heard before it was used in commercial charcoal.
