Coal recently undergoes a massive image change. Ever since, it played the most important role as primary energy carrier besides petroleum not least because of its abundance worldwide. Being mainly used for electricity generation, this demand more than doubled in the past 40 years and nowadays has the highest share of 41 % (2014) among the other fuels [1]. Thus, coal can be considered as a cornerstone of the present wealth of industrial nations. The big drawback using coal mostly via combustion is the high release of CO2 into the atmosphere.
