What is natural gas?
Natural gas is a combustible gaseous mixture of simple hydrocarbon compounds including methane, ethane, propane, butane and pentane. The principal constituent of natural gas is methane.
Natural gas is colorless, odorless and tasteless. It is two times lighter than air and disperses easily in ventilated areas. It has a narrow flammability range of 5 to 15% (as a percentage mix with air), making it an inherently safe fuel compared to other fossil fuel sources.
Why natural gas?
Natural gas is one of the cleanest and safest energy source. Unlike other fossil fuels, burning of natural gas produces less harmful pollutants such as nitrogen oxide and sulphur oxide than most other commonly used fuels. It also emits less carbon dioxide as compared to other fossil fuels.
The use of natural gas eliminates the risks of oil spills either at the point of use or during transportation. It also avoid use of storage space for large flammable inventory.
