We are a dimethyl ether manufacturer; a large amount of this substance is sold by being mixed into liquefied petroleum gas. Nowadays, city gas is almost universally available. So has the production of liquefied petroleum gas decreased, or has it found new uses? My knowledge is limited; I hope for your guidance
First and foremost, it should be noted that natural gas is not widely used, despite the large-scale import of liquefied natural gas and the construction of extensive natural gas transmission pipelines. Some LPG is produced domestically, but it mainly relies on imports. Although natural gas has seen rapid development in China recently, this has affected the share of liquefied petroleum gas in the urban gas industry; for example, Guangdong Province, which previously used LPG as its urban gas source, now uses liquefied natural gas as a gas source in many of its cities. However, according to the **Energy Statistics Yearbook**, the total annual consumption of LPG is still increasing, though at a decreasing rate. After all, there are still many rural areas across the country that use wood, coal, and other materials as sources of energy for daily life; these areas will surely need to switch to clean energy in the future, and LPG is the preferred option. Furthermore, the natural gas pipeline network covers only some areas; therefore, LPG is still needed in those areas not served by the pipelines. Of course, the chemical industry also requires LPG. OP, in your city natural gas may be widely used, but you should go and find out more. If there are limitations, you can consult energy statistics yearbooks or other sources, which provide data on the annual consumption of liquefied petroleum gas in various provinces and cities; this will make it clear which areas have high LPG usage, and thus help determine where companies should focus their sales and partnership efforts.
I remember dimethyl ether being used as an aerosol propellant; at one point there was so much of it that it had to be burned as liquefied gas
