Summary
Candles are used as a light source for thousands of years. Historians have found evidence that many early civilizations developed candles using waxes from available plants and insects. In the Middle Ages candles were made of animal fat and beeswax Later they began to be made of fatty whales. From the archival reports of the Kralupsk Refinery, Lederer et al Founded in 1900, 5 kg of paraffin was obtained from 100 kg of Borislav oil, among other products [3]. In Europe, oil refineries for kerosene and paraffin were built during this period. With the introduction of production of light bulbs, the production of candles began to decline. The popularity of the candle began to increase significantly since the mid-1980s, when the candles were interested in decorative elements. They began to produce candles of different sizes, shapes and colours. At present candles are not used more as the main source of light, but as a life and social holiday [4]
