Lignite

Lignite, also known as brown coal, has the lowest carbon content, ranging from 25% to 35%.

It is the youngest form of coal, often referred to as “young coal.”

Lignite coal is brown or dark brown and has a soft texture, often crumbly.

Due to its high moisture content, lignite has a lower energy density than other types of coal.

Uses of Lignite Coal

Electric Power Generation: Lignite is primarily used in power plants to generate electricity. Although it is less energy-dense, it remains an inexpensive fuel option for some utilities.

Industrial Applications: Lignite is also used in industrial processes such as cement manufacturing and paper production, where high heat is not as critical.

Gasification: Lignite can be used for gasification, which produces synthetic natural gas for various applications.
