Furnace Oil
What is Furnace Oil?
Furnace Oil is a dark, viscous liquid fuel derived from the distillation of crude oil. It is classified as a residual fuel used primarily for generating heat in industrial furnaces, boilers, and other large combustion systems. It is heavier than Light Diesel Oil (LDO) and High-Speed Diesel (HSD), offering a cost-effective energy solution for industries with high thermal energy needs.
Uses of Furnace Oil
Furnace Oil is widely used across various industries for:
Industrial Boilers and Furnaces – For generating steam or direct heat
Rotary Kilns – In cement and ceramic manufacturing
Steel and Metal Plants – For heating and melting processes
Glass and Ceramic Units – To maintain consistent high-temperature operations
Power Plants – As backup fuel for generators or turbines
Chemical & Agrochemical Industries – For heating reactors and dryers
Manufacturing Process
Furnace Oil is typically produced as a byproduct of the crude oil refining process, especially from:
Vacuum Distillation Units (VDU) – Residual oils collected after refining lighter products
Blending – Sometimes blended with other heavy oils to meet specific viscosity and sulfur content requirements
At Vishal Industries, we ensure:
Controlled blending to meet industrial-grade viscosity
Compliance with environmental standards
Reliable, consistent product quality in every batch
