Advance Testing Lab conducts testing of Coal, Coke and other fuels in accordance with different international and national standards in the most meticulous manner guaranteeing 100% accuracy of the test results.
The results of coal testing are used primarily for characterisation of commercial grading or the assignment of ranks and the best way to use it for various purposes.
There are two kinds of coal analysis that can be conducted:
- Proximate Analysis
- Ultimate Analysis
The tests are used to determine various parameters. The results of Proximate Analysis determine the rank of coal and other important indicators that relate to the value of coal for commercial purposes such as heating/Calorific value, and its use in boilers.

Coal is among the main sources of power in India and around the world. It is a non-renewable resource of energy. The bulk of the energy and power needs of our nation is from burning Coal. A large amount of coal also has to be imported from other countries in order to meet the ever-increasing demands for energy in our country.
Other significant uses for coal are the production of Steel, Cement, fertilizers, Paper, ceramics, and many other industrial products. It is also used in the form of a fuel liquid as well as a household fuel consumption. Coke is typically formed through the destructive distillation process of coal. It is a more carbon-rich material and is used predominantly in steel manufacturing blast furnaces.
While there are other sources of energy, such as natural gas and petroleum The advantage Coal has over them is its low-cost combustion and the significant calorific/heat values that it brings.
Coal is found in four primary kinds of ranks, namely Lignite, brown coal; bituminous, black graphite, anthracite, and coal. These ranks result from the process that took place over the course of time. They possess various chemical and physical characteristics that can be confirmed through proper testing methods.
Importance of Coal Testing
The results of coal testing are used for characterizing commercial grading or the assignment of ranks and the use for various reasons. There are two kinds of coal analysis One is the "Proximate" Analysis and the other one is the Ultimate Analysis.
The tests are designed to determine various parameters. The results of Proximate Analysis determine the rank of coal as well as some key indicators that are related to the value of coal for commercial purposes including heating and Calorific value as well as use in boilers. Advance Testing Lab conducts testing of Coal, Coke and other fuels in accordance with different international and national standards in the most rigorous manner guaranteeing 100% accuracy of the results of the tests.
