  1. The fuel volume is 1 / 30 ~ 40 of the raw material volume after molding;
  2. The specific gravity is 10-15 times of the raw material, and the moisture content is between 12% and 18% (the moisture content of coal is below 10-15);
  3. The net calorific value can reach 3500-4500 kcal (the net calorific value of class II bituminous coal is 3700-4700 kcal / kg);
  4. The ash content is less than 10% (the ash content of coal is more than 20%);
