Cokerie Anderlues

The Anderlues company was created in 1858 and extraction began the same year with wells 1 & 2.

The first coking plant was installed in 1904. It had a capacity of 90,000 tonnes with a tar and sulfate plant. The installation is built near the central wash house. A power plant will then be added to this complex.

New furnaces were built in 1906 with a capacity of 900 tons. In 1908, the coking plant produced 74,000 tonnes of coke thanks to two batteries of 26 Coppée recovery ovens.


This is the little cooling tower of the complex.
