Abstract
Coal tar pitch is liquified at temperature of from about 135.degree. C. to 280.degree. C. The liquid coal tar pitch is filtered through a sieve with apertures from about 100 to 220 .mu.m and with a closed surface area of at least 75 percent of the total sieve surface under pressures of from about 2 to 10 bar until a filter cake of a height of from about 40 to 80 mm forms above the sieve for separating ash, soot and quinoline insoluble particles from the liquid. Then the filtrate obtained is subjected to a coking process. The needle cokes resulting in accordance with the invention provide excellent materials for the production of graphite electrodes.
