The geographic distribution of coal balls of China and their stratigraphic range are very wide. Fossil plants in coal balls are abundant Floras of coal balls of Jingyuan Gansu contain the same content as those of the Hauptfloz coal of Ruhr and the Kokfloz coal of Ostrau (Namur C) in Europe. Coal balls of Shanxi and Shandong (P1) are abundant and highly diversified with flourished Cathaysian ...

Coal balls are carbonate and pyrite permineralizations of peat that contain threedimensional plant fossils preserved at the cellular level. Coal balls, which occur in Pennsylvanian and earliest Permian equatorial coals, provide a detailed record of terrestrial ecology and tropical climate during the Late Paleozoic Ice Age; yet their depositional environment remains controversial.

In this study, coal fly ash was functionalized, using a simple onestep process (loading with Al3+ and sulfonation), to yield a solid acid catalyst (S/AlCFA) with strong acid sites. The catalyst was then used to produce furfural from xylose in a biphasic system (H2O(NaCl)/tetrahydrofuran). The furfural yield reached 82% at 180 °C60 min with catalyst/xylose ratio of : (w/w). With the ...

TVA met its goal of retiring the Bull Run Fossil Plant by Dec. 1, 2023, and said the plant "finished strong" with a 48day continuous run to burn its last remaining coal. Its recent summer net capability was 765 megawatts, enough to power 440,000 homes at once. As operations finished, TVA said the plant's 60 employees were all given their first ...

Petrifactions (coal balls) are an important source of information concerning the anatomical structure of both the laminate foliage and associated or connected frond members. Such specimens are commonly seen in sectional view. Petrified laminate foliage connected to rachides provides a means of establishing relationships

From the perspective of Phanerozoic time, coal balls are rare, apparently limited to a 24 interval (323299 Ma) in the Pennsylvanian and earliest within this interval, coal balls occur in many coals. Approximately 82 transgressiveregressive sedimentary cycles have been described for the Midcontinent, Illinois and Appalachian basins of North America during the midtolate ...

The coal balls are very hard to break and are arranged along the bedding planes of the coaly shale (Fig. 3a). These coal balls have yielded well preserved marine fossils viz. brachiopods, bivalves, gastropods, etc. (Singh 1978a, b, c, d; Prakash et al. 1988).

The Mazon Creek region in Illinois, famous for its fernfossil concretions, is currently producing a number of coal balls. They are partly pyritized. Many mines produce such pyritized coal balls; they are useless for research as they cannot be properly "peeled" or sectioned. Coal balls can be appreciated only when they are examined under a ...

Some plant fossils are found in hard lumps called coal balls. Coal, a fossil fuel, is formed from the remains of decomposed plants. Coal balls are also formed from the plant remains of forests and swamps, but these materials did not turn into coal. They slowly petrified, or were replaced by rock.
