Coal

Coal is a readily combustible rock containing more than 50 percent by weight of carbonaceous material formed from compaction and indurations of variously altered plant remains similar to those in peat.. After a considerable amount of time, heat, and burial pressure, it is metamorphosed from peat to lignite.

Ranking of Coal

The system of ranking coal is based on its reactivity during extraction with anthracene oil and phenanthrene. Furlong et al. (1981) found that a kinetically defined parameter used to rank coal reactivity was correlated with the H/C ratio. Blends of coal are usually used in processing, since it is unlikely for a single source to be available.
