A coal with high ash content is undesirable, as

It is abrasive to the coal pulveriser (ie.g. ball mill) and the combustion chamber
The ash retains the sulphur & phosphorus and thus affects the quality of products in metallurgical furnace apart from increasing the slag volume. Besides, it may fuse and stick to the boiler tubes
