Polttoaineöljyä
Polttoaineöljyä, also known as heating oil or fuel oil, is a liquid petroleum product used for heating and in some industrial applications. It is derived from crude oil through refining processes. The exact composition and properties of polttoaineöljyä can vary depending on the grade, but it generally consists of heavier hydrocarbon fractions compared to gasoline or diesel fuel. Common grades include light heating oil (Lämmitysöljy L), which is similar to diesel, and heavier fuel oils used in industrial boilers and large furnaces. Polttoaineöljyä is typically stored in tanks and supplied to consumers through pipelines, trucks, or rail. Its combustion releases energy, which is then used to heat buildings or power machinery. Environmental considerations are important with polttoaineöljyä due to the emission of pollutants during combustion, such as sulfur dioxide and particulate matter. Modern formulations and emission control technologies aim to reduce these impacts. The price of polttoaineöljyä is influenced by global oil markets, geopolitical events, and seasonal demand for heating.
