Yes, but you must use a double boiler in order to do it safely. If you try to melt the wax directly over the fire, it could ignite or release flammable vapors. In general, it is safest to use an electric stove, since the flames from a gas stove are more likely to ignite the wax if some of it accidentally splashes out.

Can you boil water and then turn off the stove and put the nebulizer and all its pieces in the boiled water for 10 minutes to sterilize instead of using the vinegar cleaning solution once a week?

Yes, you can. You might want to keep the heat on low for ten minutes instead of turning it off.

What is the difference between paraffin wax and candle wax?

Most candles are paraffin, I believe. If they are cheap, and feel firm when you press your finger against the wax, it's paraffin.
