SOLID FUEL
Solid fuel refers to various forms of solid material that can be burnt to release energy. It can also
provide heat and light through the process of combustion. Solid fuels can be contrasted
with liquid fuels and gaseous fuels. Common examples of solid fuels
include wood, charcoal, peat, coal, wood pellets, corn, wheat, rye, and other grains. Solid fuels
have been used throughout human history to create fire and solid fuel is still in widespread use
throughout the world in the present day.
LIQUID FUEL
Liquid fuels are combustible or energy-generating molecules that can be harnessed to
create mechanical energy, usually producing kinetic energy; they also must take the shape of
their container. It is the fumes of liquid fuels that are flammable instead of the fluid. Most liquid
fuels in widespread use are derived from fossil fuels. However, there are several types, such
as hydrogen fuel (for automotive uses), ethanol, and biodiesel, which are also categorized as a
liquid fuel. Many liquid fuels play a primary role in transportation and the economy.
