I read with deep interest the article on Coal Combustion that appeared on April 12, 2016 in your paper. While I support the use of coal as a clean fuel I do not support its combustion. The way forward is above ground gasification of coal after mining. Pakistan has world’s second largest coal deposits (16.1%) which can be used with appropriate use of latest technology. Coal is our energy future but as a 21st century fuel.
