LNG is the liquidfied form of CNG. The storage tank pressure are
much lower and the methane gas
are kept in liquid form. This is manufacutre by chilling the natural
gas
to -162 Deg C and they are maintain in a liquid stage in a thermal
storage tank. This tank pressure are much lower the CNG storage tank .
The gas is store very simliar in nature like liquid nitrogen or liquid
oxygen and much lower in pressure at around 350 Psig.
The thermal capacity of the liquid methane yeild much higher energy
level then CNG. With pure methane , it yield 2.7 times of CNG. With a
higher thermal energy, it allows vehicles operating on LNG to extend
their range between refueling. Normal Gasoline that we now use at the
Petrol Station is 110,000 BTU per Gallon whilst LNG is about 75,000 Btu
per Gallon.
