The objective of proximate analysis indicates the percentage by weight of the Fixed Carbon, Volatiles, Ash, and Moisture Content in coal. The amounts of fixed carbon and volatile combustible matter directly contribute to the heating value of coal.
Recently, special interests have been the formation, evolution, and appraisal of the oil derived from coal and the development of new research approaches in the organic geochemistry of coal, such as the computer simulation method.A book dealing with the formation of oil derived from coal, a new mode of formation of oil derived from coal is presented.] Pech (1981).
