from a scientifically blended combination of
high-volatile and low-volatile coals, it is THE
PERFECT COAL.
Why does Neville Coke contain more heat than other solid fuels ?
Because Neville Coke is almost all carbon, and it is Carbon in
fuel that gives heat.
Will Neville Coke Last as Long as Soft
or Hard Coal ?
Soft coal does not compare with it, and Neville Coke, weight for
weight, will burn even longer than hard coal, and requires less at-
tention.
Use Neville Coke for these 9 Reasons:
