Coke plant accident scene photograph   Save
Youngstown Sheet & Tube Audiovisual Archives
Description: This photograph depicts a large shallow channel that may have been the scene of an accident at a coke plant. Coke plants burn coal to form coke, which in turn is used as a fuel in blast furnaces to convert iron ore into pig iron. This is the first step of the steelmaking process. This photograph belongs to the Youngstown Sheet & Tube Audiovisual Archives, so it likely depicts a Youngstown company plant. View on Ohio Memory.
