Butane lighters burn hotter but use up fuel fast compared to regular lighter fluid lighters which do not burn as hot but do not use up fuel as fast.**The answer is found in chemistry. Butane is a specific chemical, ie. C4H10; an alkane with four carbons and ten hydrogens. Lighter fluid is not so specific in its contents - it is generally defined as a highly combustible (thus high octane) hydrocarbon; Naptha.
Absolutely not, you should only use Zippo Lighter fluid. If you're in a pinch, Ronson lighter fluid works too.

To dispose of lighter fluid safely, check local regulations for hazardous waste disposal guidelines. Generally, it's best to take unused or expired lighter fluid to a household hazardous waste collection site.

Never pour lighter fluid down the drain or throw it in the regular trash, as it poses fire hazards and environmental risks.

Viscous fluid flow occurs when a fluid's viscosity causes resistance to flow, leading to the formation of layers within the fluid. Non-viscous fluid flow, on the other hand, involves a fluid that flows without resistance or layering, typically with low viscosity.
