Coal Glossary

Anthracite Coal: The highest rank of coal; used primarily for residential and commercial space heating. It is a hard, brittle, and black lustrous coal, often referred to as hard coal, containing a high percentage of fixed carbon and a low percentage of volatile matter. The moisture content of fresh-mined anthracite generally is less than 15 percent. The heat content of anthracite ranges from 22 to 28 million Btu per ton on a moist, mineral-matter-free basis. The heat content of anthracite coal consumed in the United States averages 25 million Btu per ton, on the as-received basis (i.e., containing both inherent moisture and mineral matter). Note: Since the 1980's, anthracite refuse or mine waste has been used for steam electric power generation. This fuel typically has a heat content of 15 million Btu per ton or less.

Bituminous coal: A dense coal, usually black, sometimes dark brown, often with well-defined bands of bright and dull material, used primarily as fuel in steam-electric power generation, with substantial quantities also used for heat and power applications in manufacturing and to make coke. Bituminous coal is the most abundant coal in active U.S. mining regions. Its moisture content usually is less than 20 percent. The heat content of bituminous coal ranges from 21 to 30 million Btu per ton on a moist, mineral-matter-free basis. The heat content of bituminous coal consumed in the United States averages 24 million Btu per ton, on the as-received basis (i.e., containing both inherent moisture and mineral matter).

C.I.F.: This term refers to a type of sale in which the buyer of the product agrees to pay a unit price that includes the f.o.b. value of the product at the point of origin plus all costs of insurance and transportation. This type of a transaction differs from a "delivered" purchase, in that the buyer accepts the quantity as determined at the loading port (as certified by the Bill of Lading and Quality Report) rather than pay based on the quantity and quality ascertained at the unloading port. It is similar to the terms of an f.o.b. sale, except that the seller, as a service for which he is compensated, arranges for transportation and insurance.

Coal Synfuel: Coal-based solid fuel processed by a coal synfuel plant or coal-based fuels such as briquettes, pellets, or extrusions, which are formed from fresh or recycled coal and binding materials.

Coal Transformation Plant: A plant, other than a coke plant, that is engaged in the chemical transformation of coal into a new substance.

Co-firing: The simultaneous use of two or more fuels by a single combustion system. Co-firing excludes the limited use of a second fuel for start-up or flame stabilization.

Commercial User: Retail or wholesale business or a facility housing such a business that uses coal for heating, raising steam or generating electricity.

Commodity Cost: The commodity cost is the price of the coal at the point of first loading (free on board/FOB) including taxes and any quality-related charges or credits. The commodity cost does not include: loading and unloading charges, dust proofing, freeze conditioning, switching charges, diesel fuel surcharges, or any other charges related to the movement of the coal to the point of use.

Institutional User: A private, state or federal facility such as a prison, nursing home, military base, university, or hospital that uses coal for heating, raising steam, or generating electricity.

In-situ: In the natural or original place; i.e., coal has not been mined.

Lignite: The lowest rank of coal, often referred to as brown coal, used almost exclusively as fuel for steam-electric power generation. It is brownish-black and has a high inherent moisture content, sometimes as high as 45 percent. The heat content of lignite ranges from 9 to 17 million Btu per ton on a moist, mineral-matter-free basis. The heat content of lignite consumed in the United States averages 13 million Btu per ton, on the as-received basis (i.e., containing both inherent moisture and mineral matter).

Manufacturing Plant: A plant, excluding coke plant or coal transformation plant, that is engaged in the mechanical or chemical transformation of materials or substances into finished or semi-finished materials or products.

MSHA ID. A seven digit identification number assigned to every mining operation in the United States by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Mine Safety and Health Administration.

Primary Product: The type of output or merchandise of the manufacturing plant.

Predominant Mode or Predominant Transportation Mode: The method used to transport coal over the single longest distance from point of origin to consumer. See Section H for more information.

Refined Coal: Coal type that is created when moisture and some volatile constituents have been removed to improve coal quality. Does not include coal processed by coal preparation plants.

Secondary Mode or Secondary Transportation Mode: If more than one method of transportation is used in a single shipment, the Secondary Mode of transportation is the method used to transport coal over the second longest distance from point of origin to consumer. See Section H for more information.

Sub-bituminous Coal: A coal whose properties range from those of lignite to those of bituminous coal and used primarily as fuel for steam-electric power generation. It may be dull, dark brown to black, soft and crumbly, at the lower end of the range, to bright, jet black, hard and relatively strong, at the upper end. Sub-bituminous coal contains 20 to 30 percent inherent moisture by weight. The heat content of sub-bituminous coal ranges from 17 to 24 million Btu per ton on a moist, mineral-matter-free basis. The heat content of sub-bituminous coal consumed in the United States averages 17 to 18 million Btu per ton, on the as-

received basis (i.e., containing both inherent moisture and mineral matter).

Transformed Coal: Refers to coal that has been chemically altered as a result of processing in a plant. For examples, coal-based fuels such as briquettes, pellets, or extrusions are formed by binding materials and processes that recycle material.

Waste Coal: Usable coal material that is a byproduct of previous processing operations or is recaptured from what would otherwise be refuse. Examples include anthracite culm, bituminous gob, fine coal, lignite waste, coal recovered from a refuse bank or slurry dam and coal recovered by dredging.
