Details· Coal tar is widely used to manufacture paints, perfumes, synthetic dyes, photographic material, drugs and explosives. It can be utilized to make insecticides and pesticides. Naphthalene balls that are commonly used to keep moths away are made from tar. Coal tar is an ingredient of anti-dandruff and lice-repelling shampoos, soaps and ointments.
Details· Sulfur in coal exists in inorganic and organic forms, the former being mostly pyritic sulfur. Total sulfur contents in major coalfields are in the range of roughly 0.5–10 wt%. In coal combustion, to generate electric power and process heat, the sulfur is emitted as SO2, which is seen as one of the main causes of acid rain. This effect has led ...
Details· The process used in converting raw metals like iron ore into steel involves beneficiation, or crushing and separation, and smelting, the process of heating the ore to obtain the pure metal. Processing of raw materials like trees may involve an entirely different process. For example, when trees are harvested, the wood is cut into logs, shipped ...
Details· This process is referred to as out-of-pit dumping. The void resulting from the first strip and the coal mining is used to deposit overburden from the subsequent strips. Contour strip mining and area strip mining are the two forms of strip mining, which is …
Details· Coal to Make Coke and Steel. Metallurgical coal (also called "met" coal) is an important raw material used in the steel-making process, although very small amounts of coal (relative to the amount used for electricity) are needed. …
Details· The U.S. coal industry serves a vital role in the nation's economy by producing fuel for more than half of its electricity. Despite the industry's importance, industry financial data for 2005—the strongest year for the coal …
