Propane, utilized as a household fuel, excels in combustion efficiency and fire resistance. Notably, burning pure propane does not emit black smoke, instead producing a faint blue flame.
In contrast, liquefied gas often contains a blend of other elements or dimethyl ether, which burns with a red flame.
Propane’s primary applications include barbecuing, powering portable stoves, and serving as automotive fuel. It is also a popular choice for outdoor camping, providing both heating and cooking solutions.
Liquefied petroleum gas, a key raw material in the petrochemical industry, is predominantly used for producing ethylene through hydrocarbon cracking or for generating synthesis gas via steam reforming.
