About Lignite (Brown Coal) (Powder)
Lignite, or brown coal, is a low-rank coal with high moisture and ash content, primarily used for power generation and heat production in industrial applications. Major grades are classified by moisture content and calorific value, typically ranging from 8,000–12,000 BTU/kg. Germany, Australia, India, and Greece are the world's largest producers, with Australia and Indonesia dominating export markets. International trade occurs mainly in powder or crushed form for thermal power plants. Buyers should verify moisture specifications carefully, as lignite's hygroscopic nature causes rapid degradation during storage and transport, significantly affecting energy content and transportation economics.
