LPG Bottling Plant in UAE

Liquefied Petroleum Gas or Liquid Petroleum Gas is the commonly used fuel than any other conventional fossil fuels.

From cooking to central heating, LPG offers a wide variety of solutions and has been increasingly used in many sectors including agriculture, healthcare, construction, hospitality, metal cutting and welding, power generation, and transport.

With the tremendous increase in the consumption of LPG, the number of gas cylinder suppliers in Dubai has increased by leaps and bounds.

In fact, LPG is the most preferred gas for cooking in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman and other parts of the Middle East.

● LPG is extracted as a byproduct of natural gas processing and by oil/petroleum refining and consists mainly of propane or butane or the mixture of both. But sometimes propylene or butylenes and other hydrocarbons can also be found in small concentrations.

● However, most of the industrial gas supplier in Dubai offers propane. Since LPG is safe and portable, it is easy to store and transport, giving a meteoric rise to the LPG Bottling Plant in UAE.

What is an LPG bottling plant?

● LPG bottling plant is a plant where the pressurized LPG gas is filled into cylinders and then transported for distribution. The plant is well-equipped to receive bulk gas from the trucks or pipelines from any reliable sources.

● When the cylinder is filled, it will be transported to reach its users. Most of the gas cylinder distributors consider this method as the cheapest and safest method of transporting bulk gases.

Though it is the simplest way to store and transport gas, it requires a number of

procedures to bring out a filled cylinder. The steps followed in the filling of industrial gases Dubai are:

●Washing and drying - In the first step of the process, the high pressure water is forced through the cylinder to remove any stains or dust particles. Later, the cylinder is made dry in the drying unit.

●Purging - Purging is a two step process where the vacuum is created in the first step and then the vapor LPG is filled in the cylinder.

● Evacuation - Using the equipment, the liquid LPG is removed from the cylinder. And at this stage of the process, the cylinder is put to test for any leakage.

● Auto cap fixing - Once the cylinder passes the evacuation stage, a cap will be fixed on top of the valve of LPG cylinder.

● Aluminum seal crimping - As a final process, the cap will be crimped around the valve.

Late in the 1900s, the demand for LPG was estimated at 9.0 million tons by 2001-2002 and

12.0 million tons by 2006-2007. Considering the demand of LPG and its usage, it is evident

that LPG will still continue to rule the oil industry.
