anthracite

solid coal

Anthracite, IPCC 2006 global default (rank-based). DESNZ has no rank-based term. No density in the source → volume conversions not available. HHV/GCV not available from IPCC Table 1.2 (NCV only) → shows 'not available'.

  • No density available (coal is sold by mass) → volume conversions not available. HHV/GCV not available from the IPCC source used.

Density

Not available.

Heating values

HHV/GCV not available — not derived from LHV.
