mate analysis, which identifies the degree of coalifaction of a solid fuel (Table 2.3). Coal samples that have been air dried are subjected to a number ofstandardized tests to determine the amount ofmoisture inherent to the coal structure, the quantity ofvolatile matter released by the coal upon heating to 1200 K for several minutes, and the mass
