Furnace Oil is a fraction obtained from petroleum distillation, either as a distillate or a residue. Broadly speaking, Oil is any liquid petroleum product, which is burned in a furnace or boiler for the generation of heat or used in an engine for the generation of power, except oils having a flash point of approximately 40 °C (104 °F). Oil is made of long hydrocarbon chains, particularly alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatics. The term Furnace Oil is also used in a stricter sense to refer only to the heaviest commercial fuel that can be obtained from crude oil, heavier than gasoline and naphtha. Employed where less highly refined products would be unsuitable. They are among the most versatile petroleum products and are used in a wide variety of applications from pharmaceuticals to cosmetics to plastics to food processing to Lubricants.
Furnace Oil is a popular choice for heating furnaces, boilers, and other equipment, making it a crucial component in various manufacturing and power generation processes.
