    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_heater

    Upright non-flued liquefied petroleum gas heater, 1970s A wall mounted gas heater that runs on either propane or natural gas. A gas heater is a space heater used to heat a room or outdoor area by burning natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, propane, or butane. Indoor household gas heaters can be broadly categorized in one of two ways: flued or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_heater

    The following substances are able to help oxidize a fuel for a catalytic heater at a useful rate: Platinum can be used with natural gas, propane and butane. It generates a surface temperature of 300–550 °C, lower than the 760 °C ignition point. [6] Pt heaters are the most common type. [7] Palladium can be used with hydrogen gas.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_petroleum_gas

    LPG is composed mainly of propane and butane, while natural gas is composed of the lighter methane and ethane. LPG, vaporised and at atmospheric pressure, has a higher calorific value (46 MJ/m 3 equivalent to 12.8 kWh/m 3) than natural gas (methane) (38 MJ/m 3 equivalent to 10.6 kWh/m 3), which means that LPG cannot simply be substituted for ...

  6. Propane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane

    Propane does not burn as hot as acetylene in its inner cone, and so it is rarely used for welding. Propane, however, has a very high number of BTUs per cubic foot in its outer cone, and so with the right torch (injector style) it can make a faster and cleaner cut than acetylene, and is much more useful for heating and bending than acetylene.

  7. Steam cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_cracking

    Steam cracker units are facilities in which a feedstock such as naphtha, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), ethane, propane or butane is thermally cracked through the use of steam in steam cracking furnaces to produce lighter hydrocarbons. The propane dehydrogenation process may be accomplished through different commercial technologies.
