Pemberton and was later bought off by businessman Asa Griggs Candler, whose marketing tactics led Coca-Cola to its dominance of the world soft-drink market throughout the 20th century and beyond. 2) In industry terms, coke refers to a high-carbon content derivative of coal that is produced through a process known as destructive distillation.

  1. Coke

    Coke is a fuel with few impurities and a high carbon content, usually made from coal. It is the solid carbonaceous material derived from destructive distillation of low-ash, low-sulfur bituminous coal. Cokes made from coal are grey, hard, and porous. While coke can be formed naturally, the commonly used form is man-made. The form known as pet coke is derived from oil refinery coker units or other cracking processes.
