Liquefied gas, also known as liquefied petroleum gas, is a basic chemical raw material and a new fuel, which has attracted more and more attention. Liquefied gas is a mixture of various low-boiling gases with no fixed components. The main components are butene, propylene, butane and propane, and a small amount of pentane, pentene and trace sulfide impurities are also doped. These gases are cooled and compressed into liquids and stored in pressure tanks for transportation and use.
Although liquefied gas is a convenient energy source, it also has potential safety hazards. Because it is flammable at high pressure, if liquefied gas leaks or is used improperly, it may lead to accidents such as fire and explosion. Therefore, when using liquefied gas, strict safety regulations and correct operation methods must be followed to ensure personal and property safety.
Application scope of liquefied gas
1, Household: Liquefied gas is usually used for cooking and heating. Compared with traditional energy sources such as coal and fuel, liquefied gas is more environmentally friendly, safe and convenient. At the same time, there is no need for fixed pipeline layout, and family users only need to buy corresponding bottles and cans and replace them regularly.
2. Catering industry: Whether it is a big hotel or a small restaurant, the firepower needed for cooking needs to be guaranteed. Liquefied gas combustion at high temperature has excellent temperature control ability and can meet different cooking needs.
3. Industrial use: Liquefied gas is also widely used in various heating and combustion equipment. For example, machinery, chemical industry, pharmaceutical and other industries need to use high temperature and high pressure energy. The use of liquefied gas can not only meet these needs, but also greatly reduce costs.
