LPG conversion

LPG

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a mixture of propane and butane. It is also called the Auto conversion gas as well natural gas. It has a best quality and performance in all over the world. It is being appreciated in market and in the business of world because LPG conversion cost is less than others.

Where does LPG come from? 

LPG is produced as a by-product in both the extraction and refining stages of oil production. In the past it has been considered waste and flared off. It is particularly abundant in the North Sea's 'wet' crude oil.

Consequently the UK is Europe's largest producer, producing 6.4 million tones in 2001. Of this over 3 million tones were exported. Only 50 thousand tones (7.75%) were used as auto gas. The rest was used for domestic or agricultural heating or in chemical or refinery operations.

Best for the environment

Two reasons, Firstly the simple chemical nature of the fuel ensures that it burns cleaner producing less pollution. LPG has the potential to make a huge difference to local air quality, particularly in urban areas. Secondly, it is produced as a by-product of oil extraction and refining operations. The UK produces a surplus of millions of tones each year. LPG is by far the most valuable use for it. Crash and fire tests have proved that the strength and integrity of tanks fitted to LPGA safety guidelines (CoP11) make the LPG fuel system safer than petrol. There are now over eight million LPG vehicles around the world. The Queen has four of them.

Works of LPG

The LPG conversion adds a second independent fuel system, making the car bi-fuel or capable of running on either petrol or LPG. This requires a second tank, usually installed in the spare wheel well.

You can still run your car on Petrol after conversion

The conversion adds a second fuel system, leaving the original petrol system in place. Therefore the car drives as before on petrol and will normally cold start on petrol. However, when you start filling up with LPG you will be loathe to buy more petrol than you absolutely have to. for more information visit here
