LPG CYLINDER COST
LPG cylinder in India, courtesy - Indian Oil What is in the LPG Cylinder ? When crude Petroleum is drilled out from deep inside the earth, it comes out with a gush and is accompanied with huge amount of gases. This gas is loosely known as petroleum gas. This gas is filtered to remove the liquid petroleum accompanying it. A strong smelling chemical is added to it – so that you can identify if the LPG cylinder is leaking. Finally the gas is compressed to a liquid state and filled in cylinders. When the gas is used from the cylinder, the liquefied gas becomes gaseous again, and comes out under pressure. The liquefaction is done so that the cylinder can accommodate more gas. Is any manufacturing process involved ? Providing the customer with a LPG cylinder involves only filling the cylinder with a gas which is coming out as a waste-product of oil drilling.
