This now updated book covers practically everything you need to know about the chemical and physical characteristics of coal. Written as a handbook, details are provided for steam coal and metallurgical coal (such as coking coal, anthracite, and coke), as well as sampling and sample preparation. Coal is next to oil one of the world's most important energy resources, responsible for over 35% of electricity (globally No. 1) and 25% of primary energy (globally No. 2). In addition, about two thirds of the world's steel is produced using coal. Coal is required for a variety of applications: power generation; steel production; coal liquefaction; cement production; and other applications including but not limited to household consumption, alumina refineries, paper manufacturers, chemical industry, pharmaceutical industry, and for specialist products such as activated carbon, carbon fiber, and silicon metals. Silicon - a key product for solar panels and various other technology products - is produced mostly in China essentially from silica (quartz stone), wood chips, and coal. Today, still much of our lives depend on this highly versatile, energy dense, and safe resource: coal. Professionals handling coal products in power plants, steel plants, other industrial consuming operations or along the value chain from mining to transportation and storage will appreciate having access to a one-stop handbook for practically everything there is to know about the chemical and physical characteristics of coal products. This handbook will also introduce you to the intricacies of sampling, sample preparation and coal analyses. It covers coking coal, steam coal, coke, and anthracite. Coal characteristics and topics covered in the book include Classification of coal Calorific value Moisture and ash Volatile matter and fixed carbon Sulphur, sizing, grindability and trace elements Slag, Basicity Coal rank Ultimate analysis Petrographic properties of coking coal Carbonization tests Physical properties of coking coal, dilatation, fluidity, FSI, CSN, reactivity, etc. Sampling, sample preparation, and coal analysis Reproducibility and repeatability Detailed Appendix with further coal know-how and overview tables published by Energeia Publishing, www.energeia-publishing.com
