What Is LPG?
Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a fuel gas mixture of hydrocarbon gases. The three most common gases under this category are propane, butane and propylene. Each of these gases has its pros and cons and can be used for heating appliances, cooking equipment and vehicles.
LPG gas cylinders are versatile and widely used in domestic and commercial settings. As a gas which offers less harm to the environment, it is becoming a much more prefered gas to use in refrigeration and propellants within aerosols. Households not on mains gas rely on LPG gas bottles for heating and cooking, which are used regularly in several recreational and business activities.
Industrial Uses of LPG
Although predominantly assumed as a more domesticated gas, LPG is still commonly used throughout many industrial processes. From agriculture to industrial metal cutting, LPG gas has a reasonably dominant stance within the industrial industry.
Automotive industry – As fuel for hybrid cars, LPG has been used to reduce the emissions from using petrol or diesel vehicles. Unfortunately, whilst an impressive 1500 garages offer LPG in the UK and a staggering 160,000 vehicles on the road, since the introduction of electric cars, the idea of an LPG car has become less popular due to its constraints.
Metal industry – The most apparent user of LPG for industrial applications are manufacturers and welders in the metal industry. It can be used as an essential requirement for cutting metal and offers a cost-effective solution.
Farming Industry – LPG is an ideal fuel for production in agriculture. It can be used to dry crops for feed due to the lack of bad smell or taste the gas offers.
Hospitality – Within the hospitality industry, LPG has an imperative use for heating various appliances. LPG offers a low sulphur content and a controllable temperature, making it ideal for cooking facilities and can also be used for outdoor heating elements such as patio heaters or gas burners.
Mobile Catering – A significant sector of LPG sales is the use of gas within mobile catering businesses. They are used to fuel the generators, heat the appliances and can even be used for portable refrigeration requirements from mobile catering businesses.
Equipment Fuel – Much like in the automotive industry, LPG offers a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly fuel option than petrol. Especially for machinery which never uses main roads, such as forklifts and other warehouse equipment. Having forklift gas onsite can add efficiency to any business.
Domestic Uses for LPG
As with the industrial industry, the domestic market can also require significant amounts of LPG. As a gas, it offers instant and efficient burn and choosing the right LPG gas can provide year-round usage.
Camping – Whether for fuel for camping cooking equipment or as fuel to run the power of a motor home, LPG is an essential gas for those who like to get back to nature and travel off the grid.
BBQs – As an alternative to coal, you can purchase a BBQ fueled by gas. These are usually much preferable to coal due to the instant heat you can achieve and their cleanliness. Coal BBQs take a while to heat up and may take hours to cool down to clean. A gas BBQ provides and much more preferable piece of equipment for a busy modern household.
Off-grid living – Whether it is a personal choice to be off-grid or their home is located in a remote location, for those who have no mains connections, bottled LPG is often the only option for fuel.
