The diagram below shows how one type of coal is used to produce electricity.

The chart illustrates the process of producing electricity from a particular kind of coal.

Overall

, it can be seen that the progress consists of eight key stages, starting from the mining of coal to the production of gas and eventually the generation of electrical power used for various purposes. At the beginning of the procedure, coal is extracted from a mine and

then

it is ground down by a crusher. After that, the collected coal is transported to a gasifier where they are heated to transform the solid material into gases from by a truck. The process continues with the gas being sent to another factory, in which it is cooled

while

waste heat is discharged. Before they are transferred to a gas power plant again, they are moved to the facility that helps them clean. The final step is that the electricity is distributed to transmission lines to haves and industries.
