LPG BOTTLING PLANT (CAP: 6000 CYLINDERS/DAY)
[EIRI/EDPR/3126] J.C. 1411,1167
INTRODUCTION
The project profile is on setting up of a Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Bottling plant for domestic use as cooking fuel.
LPG is a mixture of commercial butane and commercial propane having saturated
and unsaturated hydrocarbons. LPG is gaseous at normal atmospheric pressure, but may be condensed to the liquid state at normal temperature, by the application of moderate pressures. Although they are normally used as gases, they are stored and transported as liquids under pressure for convenience and ease of handling. Liquid LPG evaporates to produce about 250 times volume of gas. Thus, a large quantity of energy can be packed, stored, transported and used in small containers.
Most commonly, LPG cylinders are available in compact 5 kg cylinders for rural, hilly and inaccessible areas and 12 kg as well 14.2 kg cylinders for domestic use. For commercial and industrial use, 19 kg and 47.5 kgs cylinders are available.
