    About 300 millions years ago the earth had dense forest in low dying wetland areas . Due to natural processes, like flooding, these forest got buried under the soil. As more soil deposited over them,they were compressed. The temperature also rose as they sank deeper and deeper . Under high pressure and high temperatures, dead plants got slowly converted to coal. As coal contains mainly carbon , the slow process of conversation of dead vegetation into coal is called carbonisation.

    Coal is formed by the anaerobic thermal degradation of dead vegetation deep inside the earth. Wood under the effect of high temperature, high pressure and in the absence of air gets converted to coal through a number of steps. This process is called carbonisation

    Millions of years ago, dense forest and animal got buried under the soil due to natural process like floods, earthquakes and thunder storms. When they got buried deep in the soil, they were exposed to very high pressure and temperature. Under these conditions, these slowly got converted into coal. This process of formation of coal vegetation is called carbonization.
