Coal is burned mostly in fireboxes in coal fired power plants. Coal is also sometimes burned in furnaces in industrial facilities that refine and process various metals. Coal is also roasted (heated without oxygen so that it does not burn) to produce coke, which is widely used in steel mills (mostly as a carbon source and fuel in blast furnaces).
