Can we use candle/bee wax as automobile fuel?   :blink:

Any vehicles are running with candle wax as a fuel?

Give your ideas on it!!!   :D

or how it can be used? and which type of engine/assembly it will require?

Just think of it as fossile fuels are vanishing!!!   :o  :o  :o

wax cannot be used as such as fuel even it has good calorific value. it can be mixed with methanol and decrease it flash point so that it can be used as fuel and when used in automobile it form more carbon in the cylinder, this cause a draw back.

having high calorific value it self not a factor to consider something  as a fuel, availability in mass scale at affordable cost is not feasible for wax/ bee wax
