   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_bulk_container

   Intermediate bulk containers (also known as IBC, IBC tote, or pallet tank) are industrial-grade containers engineered for the mass handling, transport, and storage of liquids, partial solids, pastes, granular solids [1] or other fluids. There are several types of IBCs with the two main categories being flexible IBCs and rigid IBCs. [2]

3. Barrel of oil equivalent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrel_of_oil_equivalent

   Metric regions commonly use the tonne of oil equivalent (toe), or more often million toe (Mtoe). Since this is a measurement of mass, any conversion to barrels of oil equivalent depends on the density of the oil in question, as well as the energy content. Typically 1 tonne of oil has a volume of 1.08 to 1.19 cubic metres (6.8 to 7.5 bbl).

4. Gasoline gallon equivalent - Wikipedia

   The energy content of ethanol is 76,100 BTU/US gal (5.89 kilowatt-hours per litre), compared to 114,100 BTU/US gal (8.83 kWh/L) for gasoline. (see chart above) A flex-fuel vehicle will experience about 76% of the fuel mileage MPG when using E85 (85% ethanol) products as compared to 100% gasoline. Simple calculations of the BTU values of the ...

   It offered electric lights and a compressed air engine starter, which a customer could decline for a credit of US$100 ($3,083 in 2023 dollars [2]). In 1914, the De Soto Six was joined by a two-cylinder, two-passenger, inline-seating cyclecar, which listed at US$385 ($11,711 in 2023 dollars [2]). There were plans to move manufacturing to Fort ...

   The most common one is a type of paraffinic crude oil, although there are also naphthenic crude oils that create products with better solubility and very good properties at low temperatures. By using hydrogenation technology, in which sulfur and aromatics are removed using hydrogen under high pressure, extremely pure base oils can be obtained ...

7. Drying oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drying_oil

   A drying oil is an oil that hardens to a tough, solid film after a period of exposure to air, at room temperature. The oil hardens through a chemical reaction in which the components crosslink (and hence polymerize ) by the action of oxygen (not through the evaporation of water or other solvents ).

8. Lubrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lubrication

   Lubrication is the process or technique of using a lubricant to reduce friction and wear and tear in a contact between two surfaces. The study of lubrication is a discipline in the field of tribology.

   Fuel consumption monitor from a 2006 Honda Airwave.The displayed fuel economy is 18.1 km/L (5.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg ‑US). A Briggs and Stratton Flyer from 1916. Originally an experiment in creating a fuel-saving automobile in the United States, the vehicle weighed only 135 lb (61.2 kg) and was an adaptation of a small gasoline engine originally designed to power a bicycle.
