SOLID FUEL TESTING

Coal Testing: We perform coal testing to determine various properties of coal, such as its energy content, moisture level, and ash content and to assess the coal’s suitability for different industrial processes.

• Common Tests: Proximate Analysis: Determines the moisture, volatile matter, ash, and fixed carbon content of the coal.

• Ultimate Analysis: Provides a detailed breakdown of the elemental composition, including carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen.

• Calorific Value: Measures the energy content of the coal, usually expressed in calories or British thermal units (BTUs).

• Ash Fusion Temperature: Determines the temperature at which coal ash begins to soften and melt, which is important for handling and combustion.

• Sulfur Content: Measures the amount of sulfur in the coal, which is important for environmental considerations.

• Trace Element Analysis

Standards and Methods: Testing procedures are often standardized by organizations such as ISO (International Organization for Standardization).
