[Daily Question No. 096] 2018.04.06 Liquefied petroleum gas is a fuel that is produced by recovering petroleum exhaust gases and then pressurizing them to turn them into a liquid state for use by consumers. ( ) Check the reference answers after responding; scoring is granted by identifying the key points. √Liquefied petroleum gas is a by-product of oil refining, resulting from the production of gasoline, kerosene, diesel, heavy oil, and other petroleum products. Through specific processes, this by-product is recovered and utilized; pressure is applied to turn it into a liquid state, which is then stored in pressurized containers. This is how liquefied petroleum gas got its name. It is in a liquid state inside the gas cylinder; once it escapes, it vaporizes into a flammable gas whose volume is about 250 times larger than that of the original liquid, and it spreads very easily. It will catch fire or explode when exposed to an open flame. “My Registration Season” event – (currently ongoing in the Chemical Engineering section) https://bbs.hcbbs.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1897835. 2018: Registration for the Chemical Engineering Engineer version; daily questions, summary post: https://bbs.hcbbs.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1888974
