google - Coke is a highly processed product coming from coal or oil. The result of the processing is the removal of impurities leaving very pure carbon. It is used in the production of steel from iron ore. |

There is already entrenched denial that the information you posted from a Google search is correct. It is already an absurd word game. "Petroleum" must refer to "refined petroleum" unless you specify crude? But you can't really call it "petroleum" once it is refined. At that point you call it "gasoline" or "diesel" or "jet fuel", but nobody calls it "refined petroleum". Okay, then. If it isn't called "coke" until after you refine it out of the petroleum, then petroleum does not contain any coke. But then, "petroleum" must refer to "unrefined petroleum" And on and on in an absurd convoluted word game. Entrenched in denial of the basic facts. There is a material that can be extracted from petroleum during refining which is called "coke", "petroleum coke", "pet coke", or "petcoke" That material was present in the petroleum prior to refining. And the beauty of word games is that one can justify calling it whatever suits the needs of the moment. Insurance against the risk that some kind of rational discussion of science related to climate change will ever get past the "define your terms" gatekeeper. |

im a bm, I don't know anything about the coke issue. I just posted what google says about it. To me, google has been highly reliable. The reason i say this is because i have read and watched videos of cosmology and related subjects (4000 hours) and have found google to be almost totally in unison with the professors that wrote these books and published these videos. |

keepit wrote: I quite agree with you that Google is highly reliable. For example, it directed you to a valid and accurate description of petroleum coke. One does not have to have a PhD to be able to get useful information about scholarly topics from a Google search. Google is a good resource, even in the search for peer-reviewed scientific papers. But Google knows its own limitations. So they also offer Google Scholar scholar.google.com Here, the only search results you can find are scholarly papers from peer-reviewed journals or textbooks. See the "Google Scholar so you can do your own homework thread" |
