Abstract

Natural gas, petroleum and coal are hydrocarbons with significantly different molecular weights and hydrogen to carbon ratios. Among the three conventional fossil fuels, coal is the most abundant and the cheapest, while petroleum is a most desirable fuel resource because it is easily processed into valuable petroleum products, especially gasoline and diesel. How to utilise coal resources, especially as a replacement of petroleum, is an important topic.
