LPG

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons, primarily consisting of propane. LPG easily converts to liquid form at relatively low pressures, a property utilized for its easy transport and storage. LPG applications span various sectors, including:

Transportation:

LPG is used as fuel for vehicles. Due to its cleaner combustion compared to gasoline or diesel, LPG use results in lower pollutant emissions.

Heating and Cooking:

In many households, LPG serves as a fuel source for heating and cooking, especially in areas with limited access to natural gas networks.

Industrial and Agricultural:

LPG is employed in industrial and agricultural processes for heating, steam production, and drying products.

Electricity Generation:

LPG is sometimes used as fuel for electricity generation in small power plants or emergency generators.

Other Industries:

In the chemical industry, LPG is a feedstock for producing chemicals and plastics, and it is also used in specific industrial processes such as welding and metal cutting.

Due to its features like clean burning, easy transportability, and versatility in use, LPG is a popular and multipurpose energy source. However, due to its high flammability, LPG must be handled and used with caution to prevent potential hazards.
