Brown coal broad and variable group of low rank coals characterized by their brownish coloration and high greater than 50 percent moisture content These coals typically include lignite and some subbituminous coals In Great Britain and other countries the term brown coal is used to describemoisture content of nearly half of the mass In Australian brown coal for example about 60 of the mass is made up of water1 As a fuel low rank coals have a low energy density Therefore compared with high rank coals international trade of low rank coals is rare and they are mainly consumed locally in the mining areas

The US coal industry serves a vital role in the nation’s economy by producing fuel for more than half of its electricity Despite the industry’s importance industry financial data for —the strongest year for the coal industry in recent years—shows that it is a relatively small industry with revenues totaling $20 billion to $25 billion and net income between $1 billion and $2 Oct 11 32 Lignite mining occurs worldwide throughout Europe Australia the United States and Russia Brown coal production is more common in areas where other types of fuel are scarce Some environmental concerns surround lignite mines because pollution emissions from a lignite plant are usually greater than emissions from other types of coal plants

The coal formation process involves the burial of peat which is made of partly decayed plant materials deep underground The heat and pressure of burial alters the texture and increases the carbon content of the peat which transforms it into coal a type of sedimentary rock This process takes millions of years Types or “ranks ” of coal are determined by carbon contentmoisture content of nearly half of the mass In Australian brown coal for example about 60 of the mass is made up of water1 As a fuel low rank coals have a low energy density Therefore compared with high rank coals international trade of low rank coals is rare and they are mainly consumed locally in the mining areas
