Introduction to Natural Gas

Monday, October 15, 2012



Definition of natural gas:

      Natural Gas is one of the principle sources of energy for many of our day-to-day needs and activities. Natural gas is a naturally occurring gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, typically with 0–20% higher hydrocarbons (primarily ethane). It is found associated with other hydrocarbon fuel, in coal beds, as methane catharses, and is an important fuel source and a major feedstock for fertilizers. Before natural gas can be used as a fuel, it must undergo processing to remove almost all materials other than methane. The by-products of that processing include ethane, propane, butanes, pentanes, and higher molecular weight hydrocarbons, elemental sulfur, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and sometimes helium and nitrogen

Liquefied Petroleum Gas



Liquefied Petroleum Gas
Introduction: -
   LPG is a modern, affordable alternative to electricity.  Since it comes in a bottle, it can be moved from room to room, taken outdoors or even next door. In addition, LPGas is an energy that responds instantly.  There are no power cuts with LPGas.  It is non-toxic (not poisonous), clean-burning and non-pollutant to the atmosphere. 
Liquefied petroleum gas, or LP gas, is one of the most common alternative fuels used in the world today. In fact, in many places, it isn't an alternative fuel at all: LP gas is a mainstay for heating and cooking in certain areas of India and some rural areas of the United States. When you cook out at a campground or in your backyard using a gas grill or camping stove, you're using some form of LP gas. Known for its versatility and efficiency, these days LP gas is looking like an attractive source of energy for people fed up with high heating bills and skyrocketing
What is LP Gas?
Liquefied petroleum gas (also called LPG, GPL, LP Gas, or liquid propane gas) is a flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases used as a fuel in heating appliances and vehicles. It is increasingly used as an aerosol propellant and a refrigerant, replacing chlorofluorocarbons in an effort to reduce damage to the ozone layer. When specifically used as a vehicle fuel it is often referred to as auto gas .
