Question

what is difference between Petroleum gas and natural gas

Answer 1

The composition and source. One is found naturally the other is produced by catalytic cracking.

Explanation:

Petroleum gas is mainly C3 and C4 based (propane and butane), whilst natural gas is predominantly C1 and C2 (methane and ethane).

Petroleum gas is generally produced via the cracking of naphtha, which is one of the components separated during crude oil refining.

Natural gas is found, for example, in natural gas fields, and also in the form of shale gas.

Answer 2

LPG or Liquefied Petroleum Gas is from crude oil and mainly used for cooking and heating. ... Natural gas is the cleanest fuel compared to crudeoil and other gases because it produces less carbon dioxide. Burningnatural gas produces about 30% less carbon dioxide than crude oil orpetroleum and 45% less than burning coal.
