Mains gas is most likely to be piped natural gas. The most serious risk to human health is via a leak‚ however small‚ in the piping system that transports the gas inside the building. Natural gas is a mixture of hydrocarbons‚ including methane. It is colourless and odourless‚ which makes a leak difficult to notice. Exposure to high levels of natural gas quickly causes unconsciousness and even death. Exposure to low levels can cause dizziness‚ nausea or heart palpitations. It has this affect because

Sarin Gas Sarin Gas is one the most deadly and toxic gases that has no color and no scent. The formula for this chemical is C4H10FO2P or a more complicated formula or CH3P(=O)(F)(OCH(CH3)2) . This destructive weapon was innovated as a herbicide during the 193040s which is labeled as a nerve agent. Sarin is capable of causing the fatality of someone or the suffocating of a person by just inhaling a low concentration of Sarin gas. Sarin is considered a chiral molecule since it contains four chemical

are prime examples of the implementation of gas laws. The physics are based on the simple principle that warm air rises in cooler air. Hot air has less mass per unit of volume. The relevant gas law in use is Charless Law‚ which is V1/T1=V2/T2. The law states that raising the temperature (T1) will also increase the volume (V2)‚ in order to keep the equation true. Generally‚ air is heated through the use of propane burners. When ignited‚ the volume of the gas increases but the balloon cannot expand much

Plant derives their power from gas burning. LNG Power Plant can use gas engine or gas turbine as their power generating unit. Generally gas turbine design for simple & combine cycle with rugged components for base load utility service but also can start & stop easily for peaking application. In the other hand‚ gas engine design for wide variety of application‚ and provide fast and flexible capacity with multiple unit. This comparation of gas engine and gas turbine advantages and disadvantages

embargo was skyrocketing energy prices as a result of limited supply and heavy demand. Rationing went into effect‚ with supplies of petroleum products being carefully doled out with ration cards and flag systems‚ in which people could take turns buying gas and other fuels on the basis of license plate numbers. At the same time‚ the stock market contracted radically‚ an event that foreshadowed future stock market instabilities linked to the price of oil. The 1970s was also an era in which environmentalism
