Abstract

The reduction and oxidation of organic matter play a key role in the petrography of coal—in particular, by determining the relative content of vitrinite and fusinite microcomponents. These, in turn, determine the quality and thereby influence the technological characteristics of the coal [1–4]. However, in the petrography of coal, the physicochemical character of oxidation and reduction is not always sufficiently emphasized. In the present work, we briefly consider some aspects of these very complex processes.
