Summary
Coal-based products are products with at least one main ingredient made from coal. Coal is a type of carbonaceous rock that was formed from the remains of plants and animals over millions of years under pressure. Coal contains elements such as hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen, and also has a multitude of trace minerals. Scientists believe that coal was formed during the Carboniferous period (280 to 345 million years ago) when an abundance of plant and animal life grew and thrived in swampy areas. These life forms eventually died and sank to the bottom of swamps to form peat (a soggy, sponge-like material). The peat eventually got buried and became compressed over millions of years. With heat and pressure, the peat eventually became coal; the greater the heat and pressure, the harder the type of coal that was formed.
The four main categories of coal are lignite, sub-bituminous, bituminous and anthracite. Lignite is the softest type of coal, and contains a lot of moisture and ash, and has the lowest carbon content. Also called "brown coal", lignite is mainly used at electricity-generating plants. Sub-bituminous coal has less moisture than lignite, and is generally used for producing steam for electricity generation. Bituminous coal has a high heating value and little moisture. It is primarily used to generate electricity and produce coke for the steel industry. Anthracite is the hardest type of coal, and has the lowest moisture and ash content. This coal type makes a good heating fuel for homes. All of these coal types can be used to produce many other coal-based products, such as chemicals, tars, oils and other coal products.
