Types of Fuel

Liquid Fuel. Most liquid fuels are derived from the fossilized remains of dead plants and animals by exposure to heat and pressure in the Earth's crust. The fumes of the liquid fuel are flammable instead of the liquid. Advantages: Higher calorific value per unit mass. Burn without ash, clinkers, etc. Controlling the combustion is easier.
