Best Answer

Anthracite coal is more common as the fusion temperature is higher and produces less clinkers (molten hardened ash deposits) on grates. Bituminous coal is usable in many applications that do not use grate systems that can be fouled by clinkers.

Most coal is burned on traveling or shaking grates, however, bituminous coal can be burned in fluidized combustion bed furnaces without the clinker buildup from burning on grates.
