    The document classifies coal into four main classes based on carbon and volatile matter content: I. Anthracitic coal has the highest carbon content above 92% and lowest volatile matter below 8%. It is further divided into three subgroups. II. Bituminous coal has carbon content between 78-92% and volatile matter between 8-22%. It is divided into seven subgroups based on carbon and heat content. III. Subbituminous coal has carbon content below 78% and volatile matter above 22%. It is divided into three subgroups based on decreasing heat content. IV. Lignite coal has the lowest carbon content and highest volatile matter. It is divided into two subgroups based on heat content
