GAZ
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG - Liquefied Natural Gas)
Obtained by cooling natural gas to -162°C, turning it into a liquid for transportation.
- Composition: mainly methane (about 90-99%).
- Main exporters: Qatar, Australia, USA.
- Application: long-distance transportation in tankers.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG - Liquefied Petroleum Gas)
LPG is a mixture of propane and butane obtained from oil or gas processing.
- It is widely used in household cylinders and for refueling vehicles.
- Example: Propane-butane mixtures at gas filling stations.
GASOLINE
Technical characteristics of Euro-4, Euro-5 and Euro-6 gasoline
Gasolines differ in the level of harmful impurities, especially sulfur, which affects the environmental friendliness of the exhaust.Main differences
- Euro-4: Allows up to 50 mg/kg of sulfur, higher content of benzene and aromatic hydrocarbons.
- Euro-5: More environmentally friendly - reduced sulfur content up to 10 mg/kg, improved parameters for aromatic compounds.
- Euro-6: Minimal sulfur content (up to 5 mg/kg), even lower content of benzene and oxygen compounds, which reduces CO₂ emissions and improves combustion.
DIESEL

Technical characteristics and varieties of Euro-4, Euro-5 and Euro-6 diesel fuel
Diesel fuel of different ecological classes (Euro-4, Euro-5 and Euro-6) differs in sulfur content, cetane number and other parameters affecting environmental friendliness and engine performance.
The main varieties of diesel fuel by season:
Summer (L) - used at temperatures above 0°C.
Winter (W) - retains fluidity at temperatures down to -35°C.
Arctic (A) - maintains fluidity at temperatures down to -50°C and below.
Main technical characteristics of Euro-4, Euro-5 and Euro-6 diesel fuel
KEROSENE
Aviation kerosene is used in jet and turboprop engines. The main grades are TS-1 (Russia, CIS), RT, Jet A, Jet A-1, JP-8 (NATO).
Main varieties of aviation kerosene:
TS-1 - standard kerosene for civil aviation in Russia and CIS.
RT - analog of TS-1, but with stricter quality control.
Jet A - standard in the USA, freezing point -40°C.
Jet A-1 - international standard, freezing point -47°C.
JP-8 - military analog of Jet A-1, with additives against icing and corrosion.
MAZUT
Fuel oil is a heavy fuel derived from the refining of crude oil. It is used mainly in the power industry, for operation of boilers and marine engines. Depending on the purpose, fuel oil is divided into several types.
The main varieties of fuel oil:
Furnace fuel oil (M-100, M-60, etc.) - used as fuel for boiler plants, including industrial and energy industries.
Fuel oil for ships (RM-500, RM-700) - used in ship engines.
Industrial fuel oil (M-30, M-40, etc.) - used in industry for various purposes.
The main features of different types of fuel oil:
- Fuel oil M-100 - used mainly in the energy industry for heating and in boiler rooms. This is the most common type of fuel oil with high viscosity and high sulfur content.
- Fuel oil M-60 - is used when less viscous fuel materials are required, with lower sulfur content than M-100.
- Fuel oil M-30 - more often used in industrial and power plants where less viscous fuels are required.
- PM-500 fuel oil - used in marine engines and for other specialized purposes, such as in large production boilers.
BITOOM
Technical characteristics and varieties of bitumen
Bitumen is a viscous mass of organic origin, obtained during the processing of oil or coal. It is used in construction, mainly for asphalt paving and waterproofing. Bitumen is classified by origin, purpose and physical and chemical properties.
The main varieties of bitumen:
Road bitumen - used in the construction of roads, bridges and airfields.
Roofing bitumen - used for waterproofing roofs, foundations, and other construction projects.
Bitumen for insulation - used for protection against moisture, for example, in underground structures.
Bituminous mastics - mixtures of bitumen with various additives to improve performance, for example, for coating and protection of materials.
Industrial bitumen - used for manufacturing various products such as linoleum, adhesives, etc.
