 Propane


  Propane is a flammable hydrocarbon gas that is pressurized and commonly used as a fuel in heating, cooling, hot water, and vehicles. The propane is divided into two sections: end-user industry and geography. The market is divided into residential, commercial, transportation, industrial, and other end-user industries. The report also includes market size and forecasts for the propane in 15 countries spanning major regions. Market sizing and forecasting have been done on the basis of volume for each segment (kiloton).

   Propane is primarily used in homes in rural areas without natural gas service, as well as in mobile homes. Millions of homes rely on propane to meet some of their energy needs. In the United States, approximately five million households rely on propane as their primary heating source, and approximately one-fifth of mobile homes rely on propane for heating.

 

What is the purpose of propane?

Propane is commonly used for space and water heating, cooking, and as a fuel for engine applications such as forklifts, farm irrigation engines, fleet vehicles, and buses; however, new technology developments are rapidly expanding its applications. When propane is used as a vehicle fuel, it is referred to as propane autogas.

 

Is propane present in natural gas?

Natural gas is a non-renewable hydrocarbon that is odorless, colorless, flammable, and non-toxic. It is a gas mixture, with methane accounting for roughly 70-90 percent of its composition. Other gases in the mixture include propane, butane, and ethane.

 

 

  Homes that use propane as their primary energy source have a large propane tank outside the house that stores propane as a liquid under pressure. Propane dealers deliver propane to homes in trucks, filling the tanks several times a year as needed.

  Item-power, Ballard Power Systems, Plug Power, Proton Power Control Pvt Ltd., Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide Inc., HyperSolar – Technology, Kingkar technologies, Acta S.p.A, and others are key players in the global hydrogen electrolyzer market value chain. Companies are primarily focused on R&D to reduce overvoltage of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in electrolyzers in order to make the process more cost-efficient.
