How close is diesel to kerosene?

Diesel and kerosene are quite close chemically. Kerosene has some heavier paraffins and would clog the injectors of a diesel engine.


Which is heavier diesel or kerosine?

Kerosene is lighter than diesel. Diesel has a higher density and is thus heavier than kerosene.


How do you make bio-kerosene?

bio kerosine is made from the catalytic cracking of bio diesel


How do you make bio kerosene?

bio kerosine is made from the catalytic cracking of bio diesel


Fuels made from this can be used in diesel cars?

There are kerosene-based fuels (such as JP8), which can be used in diesel motors. There are also biofuels, which can be made from grain-based products, that'll work in diesel motors.


Can diesel or biodiesel be used in kerosene space heaters?

Yes! Diesel, kerosene and gasoline are really the same thing except that they have different octanes. Diesel is the lowest refined gas then kerosene then your different octanes of gas. So, to make the octane the same as kerosene you simply mix the right amount of gas with diesel and voila, you have kerosene. I think u can use a lower octane than kerosene but NEVER put anything of a higher octane than kerosene! Yes!

Can you use diesel in place of k1 kerosene?

Typically cars either burn gasoline or diesel fuel if the engines are equipped to burn that. Kerosene is normally not used in a diesel but it will function in an emergency just as well as diesel fuel except that the injection parts will not receive much lubrication. But it will get you home in a pinch. If your question is can you use #2 diesel in a wick type kerosene heater then no. Diesel fuel will smoke and stink compared to kerosene. If your question is can you use #2 diesel in a kerosene heater that is like a salamander, then maybe. I use #2 diesel in my salamander and it works fine and heats my garage up ok. Kerosene does burn cleaner though.


How do you convert kerosene into diesel?

Kerosene can be converted into diesel through a process called hydrocracking. This involves breaking down the larger molecules in kerosene into smaller ones to create a product that is more similar to diesel fuel. The process requires high temperatures, pressure, and catalysts to transform the chemical composition of the kerosene.


Can diesel be used in kerosene wick stove?

Diesel is a different grade of kerosene and will work. You may need to change the nozzle so it burns clean.


What is differense between kerosine and diesel?

They are similar, kerosene is better in cold weather and is added to diesel to make the winter blends. Kerosene burns cleaner, but diesel has more btu per gallon.
