Industrial Carbon Solutions and Sustainable Energy Products

Industrial Uses for Metallurgical, Ferroalloy, and Other Industrial Solutions

At Reading Anthracite, we offer high-quality anthracite products designed for various industrial applications, including metallurgical and ferroalloy production. Anthracite’s high carbon content, low volatility, and low sulfur levels make it an ideal carbon source for these industries. Our products support critical processes like smelting, alloy production, and industrial heating, ensuring high performance and reliability.

We offer a range of anthracite products with the flexibility to customize sizing from 0x100mm to meet specific customer needs. Serving diverse industries such as steel manufacturing, chemical production, and general manufacturing, our products deliver consistent, high-quality performance. Additionally, our specialized drying capabilities allow us to produce low-moisture anthracite specifically tailored for the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) market, ensuring the precise moisture control required for optimal results in EAF applications.

Waste Carbon Fuel for Power Generation

As part of our commitment to sustainability and reclamation efforts, Reading Anthracite produces a waste carbon fuel that plays a vital role in energy production. Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, where our operations are based, is a significant exporter of electricity, largely powered by carbon byproducts from our reclamation process. This energy industry forms the backbone of the region’s infrastructure, enabling the distribution of power to over 400,000 people and more than 165,000 homes across Schuylkill and Berks Counties.

Our waste carbon fuel is classified as a Tier 2 Alternative Energy, reflecting its role in reducing environmental impact while supporting regional power generation. By repurposing carbon from our mining and reclamation activities, we contribute to the region’s energy independence and sustainability. This innovative approach aligns with our focus on environmental stewardship while reinforcing the critical importance of carbon in the local energy grid.

Experience matters.
