Coal liquefaction is a process of converting coal into liquid hydrocarbons: liquid fuels and petrochemicals. This process is often known as "Coal to X" or "Carbon to X", where X can be many different hydrocarbon-based products. However, the most common process chain is "Coal to Liquid Fuels" (CTL).

Coal is classified into four main types, or ranks, based on carbon and heat content. The general rule is that the higher the grade of coal, the cleaner it burns and the more versatile its uses. Lignite(25%-35% carbon): Also referred to as brown coal, is the lowest rank of coal and used almost exclusively as fuel for electricity power generation.

This ensures nearly complete burning of the coal in order to maximize the heat given off and to minimize pollutants. The pulverized coal is then input to a boiler, where combustion occurs and the coal provides heat to the power plant. This heat is transferred to pipes containing high pressured water, which boils to steam.

Coal is formed from plants that died millions of years ago. The plant matter settled in layers at the bottom of swamps, where lack of oxygen kept it from decaying completely. Over time, pressure from accumulating layers caused the vegetation to harden, or fossilize, into coal. For centuries, coal has been burned and used as fuel.

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock, formed as rock strata called coal seams.Coal is mostly carbon with variable amounts of other elements, chiefly hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen. Coal is formed when dead plant matter decays into peat and is converted into coal by the heat and pressure of deep burial over millions of years.
