Liquefied Petroleum Gas

Introduction

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) a flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases used as fuel in heating appliances and it is an important source of energy for many homes and businesses in Malaysia.

LPG, like natural gas, has relatively few chemical components. Hence, it is easy to achieve the accurate fuel to air mix ratio so as to allow a complete combustion process. Its clean burning properties makes it an ideal substitute for traditional fossil fuels such as wood, coal and other organic matter.

In Malaysia, LPG is often used in homes for cooking. This energy source is usually supplied using gas cylinders, which limits the practicality of its usage. By using Gas Malaysia’s piped LPG system, you no longer have to face the constraints of storage or hazardous risks from using gas cylinders. Piped gas allows energy to be supplied to a variety of appliances such as the hob, water heaters and clothes dryers.
