Deisel is made out of plants.
the difference between heating oil and diesel is a red dye, you can use diesel just fine
15w40 diesel rated conventional or 5w40 diesel rated synthetic oil
Difference is capacity and the fuel type.
The difference between conventional and non conventional energy resources is that conventional energy resources are much more common. An example of a conventional energy resource would be oil, a non conventional energy resource would be solar power.
The difference between the two is quit small. Normal diesel contains less oil than performance diesel. However, when they are tested side by side, no one can tell the difference of the two.
either synthetic 5w40 diesel oil or conventional 15w40

The difference between diesel fuel and gasoline is the amount of refining that occurs to the oil. There are many different "flavors" of oil that are pumped out of the ground in varying locations. Depending on the oil that is pumped out, it's easier to use the oil for various different purposes. Furthermore, oil is then refined in large facilities call oil refineries. Gasoline is more refined than diesel fuel, which is the main difference between the two, as far as I know.
A person can tell the difference between diesel and petrol by the smell. Diesel is going to smell more like oil. Gasoline smells more like vinegar.
Sulfer & water content....and if it's off road diesel fuel - the color. It won't cause problems to use diesel in a heating oil tank, but it will cause a whole lot of trouble if you use heating oil in a diesel tank
