Pakistan has low quality of coal (lignite) because pakistan is a poor country which dont have good machinary to dig out the best coal which is found very deep underground.
So pakistan mainly use lignite which is found near the surface and it is easier to mine.
And this is a natural fact which can not be change
but this type of coal is also very useful if it is developed ,this coal is mainly used to produce electrical energy.
Coal is of limited value to Pakistan because of several factors..firstly it is a fossil fuel that is it exist in limited amount and if the use continues it will exhaust..Pakistan produces a low quality coal(LIGNITE).It is volatile that is it has a low boiling point and because of high moisture and ash content it has a low heating value..it even badly deteriorated during storage..Many industries do not use coal today because coal mining operations require lot of improvement and modernization..Although new reserves of coal have been discovered as 7508 million tons of coal have been discovered in 8 major fields in Lower Sindh..And as the focus of the coal policy is on power generation through gasification of coal,the conversion of coal in coal gas which is made up of carbon monoxide,methane and hydrogen pollutes the environment...
Coal is found in Baluchistan, Upper Punjab and in Thar Desert. Thar desert holds the largest coal reserves in Pakistan and this coal is also known as Thar Coal.
Lignite is a low-quality type of coal that is brownish in color. It is the lowest rank of coal in terms of carbon content and energy output.
Coal is limited value to pakistan because it is considered as the least popular energy fuel due to its poor quality and dangerous mining conditions.
Pakistan has a natural gases, a limited amount of petroleum, poor quality coal, salts, copper, and limestone.
Pakistan is a developing country and we cannot use renewable power resources due to lack of finance and technical assistanceWe donot have alternative sources of energy due to the requirement of the people and various industries we do mining of coal and use of various industries especially in thermal power plantsWe have fewer deposits of oil and low quality coal
Main natural resources of are; 1: Natural gas 2:Coal And 3:Low quality petroleum(oil) Apart from it "swat is riched in emerald,marble and many more
The best quality coal is called anthracite. It is a hard, high-grade coal with a high carbon content and low impurities, making it a desirable fuel source for heating and industrial processes.
Anthracite is considered the highest quality coal due to its high carbon content and low ash and sulfur content. It produces a clean and hot flame, making it ideal for heating and cooking applications.
Low-quality coal has a lower heating value and higher impurities like sulfur and ash, making it less efficient and more polluting when burned. High-quality coal has a higher heating value, lower impurities, and burns cleaner, resulting in higher energy output and less environmental impact.
"Thar" coal field in pakistan is the biggest one
Pakistan has a fair supply of coal, but much of it is low quality. It produces alot of polluting sulphur gas and ash when it is burned and does not give out much heat. Unless it is mixed with high- grade important coal, it cannot be used in factories and for transport. It's main use is in simple industries such as brick - making, where its disadvantages are not so important.
