Smokeless coal (whatever it can be, I have not found such stuff in Northern Europe where I live) burns so efficiently that only invisible gases are formed. Smoke is an indication of incomplete burning. If coal really can burn smokeless (what I do not believe), it produces only gases like CO2 (maybe also CO) and other oxides like NOx. The temperature of burning must be well above 1000oC to transform any compound into the form of invisible oxidised gases. The inorganic elements should also form oxidised gases or stay in the trash.

With smokeless coal, you get fire with no smoke(?)
