Charcoal is carbon that is left after water and other volatile compounds are burnt off from wood (or any combustible biomass) in a low oxygen environment. This process, known as pyrolysis, is done in silos or specialized charcoal kilns and can take days to complete. Lack of oxygen prevents charcoal from combusting during this process, which, in turn, prevents it from burning to ashes. This process results in a much more energy-dense fuel, charcoal that is around a quarter of original weight. Due to high energy density, lump charcoal burns a lot cleaner with less smoke and is much hotter than wood chunks.
