white gas
White gas is a type of highly refined, purified petroleum distillate used primarily as fuel for portable stoves, lanterns, and camping equipment. It has a clear, colorless appearance and burns cleanly, producing little soot or odor. Because of its low impurities, white gas heats efficiently and safely, making it popular among outdoor enthusiasts. It is different from gasoline used in cars, as it’s more refined and less likely to cause engine issues. White gas is stored in sealed containers and should be handled carefully, as it is flammable and vapors can be hazardous.
