Ola9ja23:LNG (Liquified natural gas) is a mix of Propane and Butane. I think in Nigeria we have more Butane than Propane in the mix and in the UK they have the other way, more propane than Butane in the mix. it has to do with the temperatures of these 2 different countries. UK is cold and they don't want their gas to freeze in the cylinder. Nigeria is hot and we don't want the gas to explode in the cylinder. Hence the changes. Our cookers have been designed to use it well, mix with air and burn. You can buy a UK cooker and it will work here In Nigeria. CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) is basically Methane. It burns at a low temperature. Ie, you need more of it to burn same rate as Propane/Butane mix. So if you use it in a cooker, it will just blow out and quench. There are special cookers that can use it.. Maybe in the US or something. Some people have made the mistake of buying a fancy gas cooker from the US designed for CNG (methane), ...not reading the specifications and then shitting in their pant with surprise when the cooker doesn't work with our gas in Nigeria. |

@no 1,if the lng temperature is 162degree,it means different substances has different freezing temperatures because at that temperature water becomes ice @number 6, I am confused here, you said lng is safer because it turns to gas if it leaks but then it becomes risky if warms up too much because it might turn back to gas! |

It's natural gas, just note that it's not from petroleum refining. Can be from cracks in the ground or natural decaying waste. Have u ever heard about biogas which is obtainable from decaying waste or dung? If you purify and compress biogas, you get CNG. I am presently using purified biogas collected in gas bags for cooking and running my generator from cow dung and kitchen waste. With a quality compressor, I can compress it and put into gas cylinders for use in vehicles or cooking. This is CNG. FireUpNow: |

Methane burns cleaner than butane/propane mix with full beautiful blue flame. I am a specialist in gases - biogas, CBG, LNG, CNG, purification, upgrading, compression. The gas cookers you see here can run on both methane and butane/propane mix. uuzba:

Does anyone on here know a plug or whether it’s possible to change a diesel generator from a diesel source to a source that users CNG or LNG Like how much is a cubic metre of this gases and how much fuel would it save me compare to diesel I am thinking of opening a Garri making factory Cost of diesel to power the Garri making machinery is why some people have put thier factory for sale these last few years If truly a machine can be converted to use cheap gas instead of petrol and diesel then it’s a jackpot Also I plan of farming goats on the same site I am doing the Garri making factory. Cassava peels are the end by product of Garri making This means the goats would have free mr Biggs to eat everyday All the wasted by products from the cassava straight to the goat mouth Then later as production of my Garri grows I plan of opening a mini restaurant that only sells one item , Eba and any soup of your choice with meat for just 1,000 naira . Because the Garri for the Eba comes from my factory , it’s more or less FREE. And the price of 1,000 naira for a plate of Eba, soup and meat would see a lot of patronage in these hard times especially if it’s located in a busy area where workers are located My location is Ibadan I have all the shipments and workforce ready I would need investors too just in case anyone is interested in making crazy money despite all the wahala that is happening in this country at the moment Regards Barrister Akinola Samuel Eluyefa |

[Be like your speciality na chemistry quote author=flokii post=132510810] LPG is used as cooking gas, not LNG. What you're using for cooking (i.e LPG) is propane (for Nigeria) or butane gas (in some other countries. Either C3H8 or C4H10 is the LPG (liquefied petroleum gas). LNG requires liquefaction units or LNG trains for the cooling process (cryogenic cooling) at very low temperature (-160 to -165 degrees Celcius which is approx. -260 degrees Fahrenheit). It's basically used for fueling in long distances e.g. ships and can be regasified for compression under pressure to get CNG.[/quote] |

Where are you buying the cow dungs gas from? franvincoop: |
| Re: 6 Differences Between CNG And LNG by franvincoop: 2:39pm On Oct 21, 2024 |
We are not buying the gas but we are producing it ourselves and including the household biogas plant for sale. U can use poultry, pig, goat or even human excreta in your toilet and it will still produce biogas. We have a system that purifies and upgrades it to NG - Natural gas which is 90%+ Methane but because we don't compress it, we can't call it CNG. Love800: |

yommysure:Desperate times call for desperate measures now , if the Eba is affordable and has meat inside and is under 1,000 naira. Some people will buy it 3 times a day cos the alternative is not affordable with the way Nigeria is at the moment You don’t eat Eba everyday because you get choice, na person wey get money in this t pain era that has choice Eba with different soup too could make things a littlle bit more attractive |
| Re: 6 Differences Between CNG And LNG by franvincoop: 3:11pm On Oct 21, 2024 |
Yes, but CNG is a whole lot less risky than that gas cylinder in your kitchen right now and less flammable than it. I have been using it since 2017, no be today we dey use am. See CNG is lighter than air, if it leaks it will just evaporate above as air will disperse it immediately and the whole gas leak will disappear in an instant and secondly sparks cannot cause it to ignite it will need a full flame near it to ignite. LNG is the same gas which had been Liquified well below zero degree that is why your gas cylinder is always dead cold, if it leaks, it is heavier than air and will displace air to rise above it while it will pool on the ground roaming around for its(the gas)temperature to increase and make it lighter than air before it disperses, only God knows how long that will take if you are a chosen or not but you will be having a dangerous situation on your hand cuz if someone as much as flips on a switch, y'all burn in hell. Capiche? No offence meant and not wishing any bad thing to your family. professore: |

I can design a biogas plant for your project, which will use all the wastewater from the cassava/garri process and the dung of the goats to generate gas on site which you can use for cooking and running a generator for electricity plus the same plant will provide you with quality fertiliser for your farming all year round. This will cost less than a million naira. adonainana: |

franvincoop:Hmm I thought of the same idea , the factory site has a soak away already and the goats poo would surely work . Send me your WhatsApp and let’s see if truly the cost of the bio gas digester would be super cheap then surely it’s doable Besides what type of biogas would the soak away be releasing or there is no parity cake name for it it’s just called Bio gas |
