— Coals are classified into three main ranks, or types: lignite, bituminous coal, and anthracite. These classifications are based on the amount of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen present in the coal. Coals other constituents include hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, ash, and sulfur.
— The low-quality lignite coal used in the experimental study had a hydrophilic character, and hence its floatability was fairly low. ... Boylu, and Celik 2001) added bituminous coal pitch during ...
— Lignite and brown coal are common names for coals having properties intermediate between peat and bituminous coal as a result of limited coalification. In general, brown coal designates a geologically younger, ie, less coalified, material than the firmer, fibrous lignite. In the ASTM classification,both kinds of coal are termed lignite.
