is cng stored under solvent
Answers
Answer:
CNG is a mixture of hydrocarbons comprising approximately 80% - 90% methane in a gaseous form and has a low energy density because of which it is compressed to a pressure of 200 to 250 Kg/cm2. This gas is stored in a cylinder and thus the name Compressed Natural Gas. It uses specialized conversion kits that transform gas into environmentally efficient fuel.
Explanation:
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) means natural gas used as fuel for vehicles, typically compressed to the pressure ranging from 200 to 250 kg/cm2 in the gaseous state
It is used pre-dominantly for automotive purpose as the energy requirement for running a car (for 150-200 km) can be packed in a container of size, which can fit in to the luggage compartment or boot space when pressurized gas volume reduces by nearly 300 times. There are few instances of CNG being used for industrial purposes for shipping desired quantities through cylinder cascades .However in such cases pressure reduction at the end use is inevitable.
