Kerosene, also known as paraffin oil, is a clear, flammable liquid distilled from crude oil, commonly used as a fuel for heating, cooking, and lighting. With a moderate boiling range and lower volatility than gasoline, kerosene burns more slowly, making it ideal for applications that require a controlled, long-lasting heat source. It is commonly found in household, industrial, and even aviation settings.

Applications:

Used in portable heaters for home heating, especially in areas without access to electricity or natural gas.
Used as fuel in portable camping stoves and in kerosene stoves in regions where electricity or gas cooking options are limited.
Refined kerosene, commonly known as Jet A or Jet A-1 fuel, is used in turbine-powered aircraft due to its high energy density, stability, and performance at low temperatures.
Kerosene is used in heating systems for drying, especially in construction (for concrete curing) and industrial facilities.
Used in lanterns and cooking stoves on ships and small boats, especially in remote areas without electricity.
Kerosene is a reliable fuel for lighting, heating, and cooking in disaster relief situations, where conventional fuel sources may be unavailable.
