Kerosene cutting torch

Kerosene

— another popular type of liquid fuel, along with gasoline (see related paragraph). Gives a relatively low flame temperature — up to 800 °C; however, in pure oxygen, this figure can reach 2000 °C. At the same time, we note that very few purely kerosene heaters are produced: since such fuel is very similar to gasoline in physical properties, combined devices that can run on both gasoline and kerosene are more popular.
