This priceless coal

Coal is a solid sedimentary rock. It is formed during the decomposition of the remains of certain plant species and is the most important mineral, which has been mined for almost a dozen centuries. By the way, earlier for the formation of this solid matter , a number of conditions were required. The plant material, which is formed as a result of the decomposition of plants, must accumulate much faster than the decomposition process and subsequent decay. Therefore, coal was formed mainly on the expanses of ancient peat bogs. It was there that in the absence of oxygen in the required volume, carbon compounds accumulated. Since peat was used as fuel at that time, it was an excellent material for the formation of coal.

Coal, as mentioned above, is a carbonaceous substance. In addition to this "aromatic" compound, there are water and other impurities in the rock. A very important indicator of the value of coal is the maximum amount of heat that is released during its combustion. A good example is an ordinary wood log. Have you tried to kindle raw firewood? As it turns out? Until all the moisture evaporates, it is almost impossible to ignite the fire. In addition, while moisture comes into contact with heat, volatile substances are formed that prevent combustion. The same happens with coal. For the most efficient use of heat during combustion, coal must be of high quality. On this depends its value and the possibility of further application.

Deposited it, as a rule, are at great depth. The most qualitative grade of coal is anthracite. Obtain it in mines at a depth of 2000 m and more. Some rocks are less deep, so the deposits are mined in an open way. Simply put, they are developing great careers.

Rock coal is used as a solid fuel. It can be used in everyday life as an energy fuel, as well as in the chemical and metallurgical industries. It is possible to process it into oil, which, as a result, allows obtaining liquid fuel.

The coke-chemical industry is widely spread on the territory of our country. When coking, products such as gas, ammonia, coal tar appear. In turn, it is possible to obtain from the gas toluene, benzene, which is widely used in the rubber industry, and also is part of the varnishes and paints used in our daily life. In addition, raw materials obtained as a result of coal processing are used in the production of building materials, ceramics and various types of abrasives.

No less useful material involved in human life is coconut coal. By its properties, it greatly exceeds the wood. This type of coal is produced according to a special technology - from the coconut shell. Characterized by a higher combustion temperature and the duration of smoldering, compared with similar products on the market.

Predominantly coconut coal is used for cooking dishes on the grill or grill. Recently they began to be actively interested in adherents of hookah. Due to its features, it is very economical in application. Good heat dissipation and the absence of harmful impurities make it a very popular and popular source of energy.

The cost of coal, both coconut and stone, depends on many factors. Of special importance is, of course, the pricing policy for a particular type of product. But still the final consumer is interested in quality. And it is not so important, than it will be confirmed, warmth and comfort in the house or perfectly prepared shish kebab.
