  2. Compressed natural gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_natural_gas

    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.

  3. Gasoline gallon equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_gallon_equivalent

    One GGE of natural gas is 126.67 cubic feet (3.587 m 3) at standard conditions. This volume of natural gas has the same energy content as one US gallon of gasoline (based on lower heating values: 900 BTU/cu ft (9.3 kWh/m 3) of natural gas and 114,000 BTU/US gal (8.8 kWh/L) for gasoline). [22]

  5. Propane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propane

    Propane's per-BTU production of CO 2 is almost as low as that of natural gas. [28] Propane burns hotter than home heating oil or diesel fuel because of the very high hydrogen content. The presence of C–C bonds , plus the multiple bonds of propylene and butylene , produce organic exhausts besides carbon dioxide and water vapor during typical ...

  6. Substitute natural gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitute_natural_gas

    Substitute natural gas (SNG), or synthetic natural gas, is a fuel gas (predominantly methane, CH 4) that can be produced from fossil fuels such as lignite coal, ...

  7. Miles per gallon gasoline equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miles_per_gallon_gasoline...

    In 1994 the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) introduced gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE) as a metric for fuel economy for natural gas vehicles. NIST defined a gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE) as 5.660 pounds of natural gas, and gasoline liter equivalent (GLE) as 0.678 kilograms of natural gas. [18]

  9. Liquefied natural gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_natural_gas

    The heating value depends on the source of gas that is used and the process that is used to liquefy the gas. The range of heating value can span ±10 to 15 percent. A typical value of the higher heating value of LNG is approximately 50 MJ/kg or 21,500 BTU/lb. [2] A typical value of the lower heating value of LNG is 45 MJ/kg or 19,350 BTU/lb.
