Hey there!!!

=========================

Five types of alcohols are:

1). Wood Alcohol ( Methanol ) 
2).Grain Alcohol ( Ethanol )
3).Power alcohol
4).Methylated spirit or denatured alcohol
5).Absolute Alcohol

==================================
WOOD ALCOHOL : Industrially, methanol was isolated from the liquid formed from the destructive distillation (heating in the absence of O2) of wood.
------------------------------------------------------
GRAIN ALCOHOL : It is a product of yeast fermentation of sugars and fruits. It is a constituent of wines, hard liquors etc.
------------------------------------------------------------
METHYLATED SPIRIT OR DENATURED ALCOHOL : Alcohol is denatured by the addition of poisonous substances such as methyl alcohol, acetone or pyridine and some colouring metals such as copper sulphate. Such a sample of alcohol is called methylated spirit or denatured alcohol.
