Book excerpt: ‘Coal’ and ‘China’ to some extent have become synonymous. China is by far the largest user of coal in the world. In 2016, coal production in China amounted to 3.21 billion tons, about half of the total global coal production. Coal consumption accounts for more than 65% of primary energy consumption in China. The Chinese coal industry greatly contributes to the economic development in China, the second largest economy in the world. However, periodically, ubiquitous images of smog blanketing major Chinese cities are viewed all over the world. Coal combustion is one of the important contributors to smog, which is considered to be a major environmental and human health problem for China and other countries. News stories also highlight the periodic coal mine disasters that kill hundreds of Chinese coal miners annually. The need to address these and other human health, environmental, and mine safety issues and to maximize resource recovery and use justifies a vigorous coal research effort. This book brings together experts on almost every aspect of coal geology, coal production, composition and use of the coal and its by-products, and coal’s environmental and human health impacts. The chapters in this book were originally published in a special issue of the International Geology Review.

Download or read book Coal Activities for Secondary Students written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of lesson plans designed for teachers of 4th- through 12th-grade students utilizes an assortment of teaching strategies for topics related to coal and the coal industry. Activities cover the following topics: coal formation; coal identification; "the geologist's dilemma" (a supply and demand activity); geologic time and the formation of coal; history of the coal industry in the United States; coal derivatives; and coal composition. Teaching methods vary with each lesson to include experimentation, simulation, and student interviewing. Experiments allow for the study of coal derivatives through destructive distillation, and for the study of coal composition through moisture and ash analysis. Each experiment lesson plan designates grade level, objectives, discussion techniques, materials, procedures, and results or data collection analysis. One of two simulation lesson plans consists of a coal formation project to observe the conditions present in coal formation. The second simulation lesson plan is a role play activity where students use problem solving skills in resolving any energy source dilemma. A student interviewing activity entails identifying local people who have been involved with coal mining operations in the past. This particular lesson includes sample interview questions and permission slips to be signed by parents and persons interviewed. (Mcd).
