Hello Mate,
A process by which organic substances such as wood,coal, and oil shale are broken down by heat in the absence of air. This causes them to break down into solids, liquids, and gases, which are then used to make products such as coke, charcoal, oils, and ammonia....
Hope this helps you

Answer:
Process in which a solid material (usually coal or wood) is heated at high temperature out of contact with air to make coke, coal tar, or charcoal. It is called 'destructive' because the chemical composition of the end product is distinctly different from that of the input material. See also fractional distillation.
