Pyrolysis of Sarawak coal was conducted using thermogravimetric (TG) study. Two coal samples, subbituminuous (Merit Pila coal) and bituminous (Silantek coal) were investigated within the temperature range of 300 900 �C at different heating rates of 10, 20, 30 and 40 �C min-1, under inert nitrogen ga...
