Abstract

Author described the method of petrographic constituent analysis, some property of macerals and the application of coal petrology for fundamental research or industry.The methods of microscopical measurement for the macerals and reflectance of coal are now studying at the Japanese Committe on coal petrology in the Japan Iron and Steel Federation for the Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS).Research on the property of macerals of Japanese coal and imported coal is specially important for a prameter both coal rank and caking property in coke industry.
