Compressed natural gas (CNG) is a fuel gas mainly composed of methane (CH 4), compressed to less than 1% of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure.It is stored and distributed in hard containers at a pressure of 20–25 megapascals (2,900–3,600 psi; 200–250 bar), usually in cylindrical or spherical shapes.
The National Conference of Weights & Measurements (NCWM) has developed a standard unit of measurement for compressed natural gas, defined in the NIST Handbook 44 Appendix D as follows: "1 Gasoline [US] gallon equivalent (GGE) means 2.567 kg (5.660 lb) of natural gas." [23]
Compressed natural gas (CNG) carrier ships are those designed for transportation of natural gas under high pressure. [1] CNG carrier technology relies on high pressure, typically over 250 bar (2900 psi ), to increase the density of the gas, but it is still 2.4 times less than that of LNG (426 kg/m 3 ). [ 2 ]
HCNG or H2CNG (hydrogen compressed natural gas) is a mixture of compressed natural gas and 4–9 percent hydrogen by energy. [1] It may be used as a fuel gas for internal combustion engines [2] [3] [4] and home appliances. (regarding the acronyms in the above emissions chart: AVL = Average Levels? CNG = Compressed Natural Gas HCNG = Hydrogen ...
In Canada, the maximum working gas stored was 456 billion cubic feet (1.29 × 10 10 cubic metres) in 2006. [13] Alberta storage accounts for 47.5 percent of the total working gas volume. It is followed by Ontario which accounts for 39.1 percent, British Columbia which accounts for 7.6 percent, Saskatchewan which accounts for 5.1 percent and ...
A natural-gas processing plant in Aderklaa, Austria. Natural-gas processing is a range of industrial processes designed to purify raw natural gas by removing contaminants such as solids, water, carbon dioxide (CO 2), hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), mercury and higher molecular mass hydrocarbons to produce pipeline quality dry natural gas [1] for pipeline distribution and final use.

Rupantarita Prakritik Gas Company Limited, also known as RPGCL, is a government owned company in Bangladesh. RPGCL is the forerunner in encouraging the use of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) as an alternate fuel in the transport sector. People were encouraged to use CNG as a fuel in order to improve the environmental pollution.
There are three Gas Codes and these are described below. Gas carriers built after June 1986 (the IGC Code). [10] The IGCCode which applies to new gas carriers (built after 30 June 1986) is the International Code for the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk. In brief, this Code is known as the IGC Code.
