Coal is one of the fossil fuel along with the petroleum.Coal is a mixture of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen,nitrogen and sulpher.It is formed by degradation of wood under the influence of high pressure and temperature over millions of years and this process is called as carbonization.
When coal is heated in the absence of air is called destructive distillation of coal.We get many usefulproducts like coke, coal tar and coal gas etc.
1.Coke -Its an solid residue left after the destructive distillation of coal.
2.Coal tar- Its an thick black liqiud which is mixture of many carbon compounds.
3.Ammonical liquor- Ammonia produced in the process is absorbed in water to form ammonium hydroxide solution called as ammonical liquor.
4.Coal gas- Gaseous component mixture of hydrogen,methane and carbon monooxide.

Distructive distillation of coal is a process of heating a complex substance i.e. coal in limited supply of air so that it breaks down into simplier substances. In this process the coal is heated to 1000 degree celcius in absence of air to obtain different useful components such as coke, coal tar and coal gas.

When coal is heated without air, it does not burn but produces many by-products. This process of heating coal in the absence of air is called destructive distillation of coal.

The main by products are:

  • coke
  • coal tar
  • amino acid liquor
  • coal gas

What is destructive distillation of coal and also name the product obtained by its process? 
Ans. the process of strong heating of coal in the absence of air is called as destructive distillation of coal. 
In this process the component present in coal break down into simpler substance.
the product obtained on destructive distillation of coal are Coke, coal gas , coal tar and ammoniacal liquor.
