The demand for coal use (for electricity generation) and coal
products, particularly liquid fuels and chemical feedstocks, is
increasing throughout the world. Traditional markets such as North
America and Europe are experiencing a steady increase in demand
whereas emerging Asian markets, such as India and China, are
witnessing a rapid surge in demand for clean liquid fuels. A
detailed and comprehensive overview of the chemistry and technology
of coal in the twenty-first century, The Chemistry and Technology
of Coal, Third Edition also covers the relationship of coal
industry processes with environmental regulations as well as the
effects of combustion products on the atmosphere. Maintaining and
enhancing the clarity of presentation that made the previous
