1. Concept and Components<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n

LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)<\/strong><\/h4>\r\nLPG is liquefied petroleum gas, consisting mainly of propane<\/strong> and butane<\/strong>. This is a by-product of oil refining and natural gas extraction. LPG is in a gaseous state under normal conditions, but is compressed under high pressure to liquefy, making it convenient for storage and transportation.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n

LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas)<\/strong><\/h4>\r\nLNG is liquefied natural gas, the main component is methane<\/strong> (CH\u2084). Unlike LPG, LNG is cooled to -162\u00b0C to turn into a liquid, reducing its volume to 1\/600 of its gaseous state, making it convenient for long-distance transportation.\r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n

Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)<\/strong><\/h4>\r\nCNG is compressed natural gas, which also contains methane but is not liquefied like LNG. Instead, CNG is compressed at high pressure (typically 200-250 bar) and stored in pressure vessels.\"\"\r\n\r\n
