♦Types of Coals:

•Peat

Peat is an important industrial fuel in some regions, including Ireland and Finland. When dehydrated, peat becomes an effective absorbent for fuel and oil spills .

•Lignite

Lignite is a low ranking and highly volatile coal which is used mainly in power stations.

•Bituminous/Sub Bituminous Coal

These coals are widely used in the manufacturing of briquettes, and are also used in power stations, for heat and power applications in manufacturing, and to make coke.

•Steam Coal

It was once used to fuel steam trains, and as the use of them declined, so did the use of steam coal.

•Anthracite

Anthracite is the main source of many manufactured fuels, and provides a good heat output, and long burning times.

•Graphite

It is mostly used in pencils, and as a lubricant in its powdered form.
