bituminous

It is then heavy oil which means it has more bituminous, long hydrocarbon chains with more sulphur so it produces a cheaper grade of product and requires more processing.

They'll be perfectly happy if these things are powered with heaps of bituminous.

Alt-energy is all exciting and holds such potential until you realize that bituminous coal was once the miracle solution to having everyone burn wood.

So it (along with Canada's bituminous sands) should never have been extracted.

In Arabic form mumiya it was used for the bituminous embalming substance.

Also, maybe I’ve been particularly lucky, but I’ve found bituminous deposits in the wild before that would probably be usable.

Anthracite, in these regards, is very different from bituminous coal.

It would have been even easier to, for instance, never allow the extraction of bituminous sands and tight oil: cannot burn something that was never extracted!

Amber is heterogeneous in composition, but consists of several resinous bodies more or less soluble in alcohol, ether and chloroform, associated with an insoluble bituminous substance.

By comparison, a 1GW bituminous coal plant burns on the order of 2,750,000 tons of coal per year to achieve the same kind of baseload power output.

Anyway, Bituminous coal was used in smelting of iron ore in Roman Britain, and China had long been using coal for steel production by that time period.

>Most anthracite and bituminous coals occur within the 299- to 359.2-million-year-old strata of the Carboniferous Period, the so-called first coal age.

A sample labeled “bituminous coal” goes in and, 15 seconds later, Pringle ignites the resulting gas.

This line in particular looks like a good move: > "Expands the definition of crude oil for purposes of the excise tax on petroleum and petroleum products to include any oil derived from a bitumen or bituminous mixture (tar sands), and any oil derived from kerogen-bearing sources (oil shale)." Seems like the industry got its lobbyists to write in a loophole, and that loophole should be eliminated.
