Liquid oil is many uses to us. This liquid oil is most commonly used in generating electricity and as a fuel in cars. Oil is burnt to
run steam turbines to produce electricity. This is highly efficient way
of generating heat to support production of electricity. However it is
getting expensive day by day due the soaring prices of oil and
scarcity of this resource. Natural oil is found in many
parts of the world but is most commonly found in Middle East and in
some parts of Europe. Oil is used as a fuel in cars, buses, tractors
and industrial machinery. The oil which is used in vehicles is known as
petrol and diesel. Crude oil is used in many industrial products like
in detergents, in fertilizers, paints, plastics, petroleum products,
medicines and in the formation of synthetic rubber. Other than liquid
crude oil, there are many other different types of oils. The oil is
also derived from vegetables, plants and animals. Such kinds of oils
include olive oil; flex seed oil, palm oil, corn oil, coconut oil,
almond oil and cod-liver oil.
