diesel fuel
Diesel fuel is a type of liquid fuel derived from crude oil used primarily to power diesel engines found in trucks, buses, some cars, and machinery. It’s denser than gasoline and contains more energy per volume, making it efficient for heavy-duty and long-distance travel. When burned in an engine, diesel produces power through controlled combustion, which also creates higher torque. Diesel engines are often more fuel-efficient and durable but can produce more emissions. The fuel is refined to meet specific quality standards to ensure proper engine performance and environmental compliance.
