Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book examines how coal weathers in nature and when stored, providing insights into the spontaneous combustion of this crucial fuel source. This process, alongside coal's reactivity with oxygen, has been studied for over 150 years; the author reviews historical research and theories on these phenomena. The text also explores how varying factors such as moisture, pressure, storage size, and pyrite content impact a sample's vulnerability to the destructive effects of oxidation. Through archival research, the author traces the evolution of coal's industrial use, providing a fuller picture of its susceptibility to weathering. This book's insights into how coal naturally degrades can help modern industries take preventive measures and gain a deeper understanding of this essential material. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
