About Megajoule (MJ)
One million joules, the megajoule is used for expressing the energy content of fuels and industrial energy consumption. One liter of gasoline contains about 34 MJ of chemical energy, and industrial boiler outputs and building energy audits often use megajoules as the standard unit.
About Kilojoule (kJ)
Equal to 1,000 joules, the kilojoule is the standard energy unit on food nutrition labels in Australia, New Zealand, and the European Union. A typical adult's daily energy requirement is about 8,700 kJ (approximately 2,080 kilocalories), and food packages in metric countries display energy content in kJ.
