What is Coal? Coal is an organic sedimentary rock that forms from the accumulation and preservation of plant materials, usually in a swamp environment. Coal is a combustible rock and, along with oil and natural gas, it is one of the three most important fossil fuels.Coal has a wide range of uses; the most important use is for the generation of electricity.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) or carbon capture and sequestration is the process of capturing carbon dioxide (CO 2) before it enters the atmosphere, transporting it, and storing it (carbon sequestration) for centuries or millennia.Usually the CO 2 is captured from large point sources, such as a chemical plant or biomass power plant, and then stored in an underground geological formation.

In room-and-pillar mining, coal deposits are mined by cutting a network of 'rooms' into the coal seam and leaving behind 'pillars' of coal to support the roof of the mine. These pillars can be up to 40% of the total coal in the seam – although this coal can sometimes be recovered at a later stage. Longwall.

Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) takes advantage of the same chemical reactions of coal to produce product gases, as those occurring in conventional gasifier reactors. The main difference is that in UCG the underground coal seam itself becomes the reactor, so that the gasification of the coal takes place underground instead of in a manufactured gasification vessel at the surface.1 Obviously ...
