The CV is measured in MJ/Kg (KJ/g) or CAL/g or BTU/lb, the conversion factors are well known: 1 MJ/Kg = 429.92255 BTU/lb = 238.84586 CAL/g. For reference: 1J = 1Ws (1 Watt for 1 second) If the power station conversion efficiency from coal to electricity would be 100% then 1 gram of coal with a CV of 26KJ/g would result in 26000 WS = 7.2 Watt Hour.

Mining Feature: Coal Mine Explosion Prevention. There are two main types of coalmine explosions: methane and coal dust. Methane explosions occur when a buildup of methane gas contacts a heat source and there is not enough air to dilute the gas level below its explosion point. Likewise, fine particles of coal dust in the right concentration that ...

How Coal Power Plants Produce Electricity The conversion from coal to electricity takes place in three stages. Stage 1 The first conversion of energy takes place in the boiler. Coal is burnt in the boiler furnace to produce heat. Carbon in the coal and Oxygen in the air combine to produce Carbon Dioxide and heat. Stage 2

Surface or strip mining damages and pollutes ecosystems to a great degree. This is because by definition the process of strip mining involves striping away trees, plants and topsoil so that the coal can be accessed underneath. This means that surface mining destroys mountain tops, landscapes, forests and wildlife habitats.
