liquified petroleum gas lpg

Composition of LPG - Butane with small quantities of ethane and propane. These gases can be liquified under pressure and bottled in cylinders. By itself LPG is odourless. On leakage, it is toxic if inhaled. It also forms an explosive mixture with air. LPG can..

Petroleum gas a by-product from two sources: natural gas processing and crude oil refining is a mixture of butane, propane and ethane. The main constituent of liquefied petroleum gas is, however, propane, propylene, butane, butylene in various mixt..

Fossil fuels, like, coal, lignite, petroleum and natural gas are non renewable natural resources. Both have an organic origin and are called hydrocarbon fuels. Coal was formed in nature as a solid from the remains of the trees buried deep inside the earth, some 500 million year..

Fossil Fuels - Synthetic Petroleum and Synthetic Gas - In countries, where coal is easily available as compared to the rapidly depleting petroleum and natural gas, it is possible to avert the energy crisis by preparing petroleum and natural gas..

Petroleum occurs in nature, trapped between two layers of impervious (non-porous) rocks, usually under the sea. Natural gas collects above the surface of petroleum..

Petroleum is brought to the surface by drilling a hole in the Earth's crust and sinking pipes deep down through the impervious cap rock. Natural gas first comes out under high pressure. Then, petroleum is pumped out, collected in tanks and transported, for further pro..

A liquefied form of natural gas usually consists primarily of methane. Its properties are those of liquid methane, slightly modified by minor constituents. One property, which differentiates liquefied natural gas (LNG) from liquefied petroleum gas (LPGh..

It is a mixture of gaseous hydro-carbons. It is found usually along with petroleum deposits. Natural gas consists mainly of 85% methane, 10% of ethane and 3% of propane and butane. It may also contain nitrogen, oxygen, carbon di-oxide and hydrogen sulphid..
