The present technology is generally directed to methods of increasing coal processing rates for coke ovens. In various embodiments, the present technology is applied to methods of coking relatively small coal charges over relatively short time periods, resulting in an increase in coal processing rate. In some embodiments, a coal charging system includes a charging head having opposing wings that extend outwardly and forwardly from the charging head, leaving an open pathway through which coal may be directed toward side edges of the coal bed. In other embodiments, an extrusion plate is positioned on a rearward face of the charging head and oriented to engage and compress coal as the coal is charged along a length of the coking oven. In other embodiments, a false door system includes a false door that is vertically oriented to maximize an amount of coal being charged into the oven.

The present invention discloses a substance vehicle of pyrolysis reactor to apply for loading the substances of pyrolysis reactor. The substance vehicle includes a vehicle body, at least two movable doors and at least two fixed units. The vehicle body is used to accommodate the pyrolysis substances, and the movable door is movably disposed at the bottom of the vehicle body. When the fixed units are changed from the first position to the second position, a part of the fixed unit will disengage from the bottom of the movable door, such that the movable doors are opened by gravity and the pyrolysis substances are dropped.

The present technology is generally directed to methods of increasing coke production rates for coke ovens. In some embodiments, a coal charging system includes a false door system with a false door that is vertically oriented to maximize an amount of coal being charged into the oven. A lower extension plate associated with embodiments of the false door is selectively, automatically extended beyond a lower end portion of the false door in order to extend an effective length of the false door. In other embodiments an extension plate may be coupled with an existing false door having an angled front surface to provide the existing false door with a vertically oriented face.
