Products with normal combustion and no noise are qualified products; If the combustion is abnormal, it will make a "squeaky" sound, indicating that the water content exceeds the standard and it is an unqualified product; When burning, there is a "crackling" explosion, indicating that the water content of the oil is seriously exceeding the standard, which may be an adulterated product and must not be purchased.
