COG have been widely used together with blast furnace gas and blast furnace oxygen gas in the steel industry in Moravian-Silesian region of Czech Republic. COG is a flammable and explosive substance. Most explosion characteristics published so far are valid for pure compounds and limited experimental conditions, mostly ambient. There have been no explosion characteristic exists for COG-air mixtures which cover industrial conditions up to 423 K. Experimental tests have been carried out in a 20-L closed explosion chamber adopted for the explosion tests. The element potential approach in the thermochemical equilibrium calculations applied in the Chemkin subroutine has been used for explosion pressure calculations. Different explosion characteristics have been reported in a range from 298 K up to 423 K and from 0.5 bar(a) up to 1.0 bar(a).
