Alcohol that is not intended for consumption is called denatured alcohol. It contains a toxic chemical that smells bad and is not meant to be ingested. In addition to having a different intended use (solvent, fuel, etc.), a company can avoid higher taxes compared to the alcohol people use for drinking.
