Coal can feed products well beyond combustion. The study sets out routes to rare earth elements held in particular seams, building materials made with carbon fibre and carbon char, coal foam and graphene composites, carbon black and activated carbon, including a coal derived activated carbon reported to hold four times the gas of compressed natural gas at lower pressure.
Soil Rehabilitation: Can Dung Beetles Improve Post-mining Land-use Options?
2018
Final report of a three year study on rehabilitated South African coal mine soils, testing an invertebrate based addition to conventional rehabilitation, for environmental managers and land use planners.
What this report foundAnts, termites, dung beetles and earthworms are known to improve soil health, but none had been deliberately applied as part of a mine reclamation strategy.

Ants, termites, dung beetles and earthworms are known to improve soil health, but none had been deliberately applied as part of a mine reclamation strategy. Experimental and field scale studies asked whether dung beetles maintain their burial activity, and the soil services that follow, in soils typical of rehabilitated mine land, and set out recommendations for using them alongside existing methods.
