To preserve fossil fuels all over the world, it is important to develop the efficient use of low rank coals like brown coal and lignite. Upgraded Brown Coal (UBC), which is the coal dewatered and stabilized in heated oil, is the promising way to use low rank coals as sophisticatedly as bituminous coals. In this paper, fundamental combustion characteristics and kinetics of UBCs are examined via thermo-gravimetric analyses. The results obtained are compared with those of some kinds of bituminous coal. The UBC seemed to have higher reactivity during combustion. There is a little difference in the volatile evolution process between the UBC and bituminous coals.
