Process of conversion of vegetable matter into coal by biochemical process over long millions of years is called carbonization.

Carbonization (or carbonisation) is the term for the conversion of an organic substance into carbon or a carbon-containing residue through pyrolysis or destructive distillation.

It is often used in organic chemistry with reference to the generation of coal gas and coal tar from raw coal.

$\red {HELLO\:DEAR}$☆

About 300 million years ago the earth had dense forest in low lying wetland areas.

Due to various natural processes, like flooding and earthquakes, these forests got buried under the soil.

Under high temperature and pressure the plants got converted to coal slowly.

This process is called carbonisation.
