Hydrocarbons are the main component of natural gas, a combustible gas mixture. Gaseous low-molecular hydrocarbons and non-hydrocarbon gases primarily make up natural gas. It consists mainly of methane (85%) and a small amount of ethane (9%), propane (3%), nitrogen (2%) and butane (1%). This fuel is also used to produce chemicals such as acetaldehyde, acetylene, ammonia, carbon black, ethanol, formaldehyde, hydrocarbon fuels, hydrogenated oil, methanol, nitric acid, synthesis gas, and vinyl chloride. For storage and transportation, natural gas is compressed into liquid form. Flow meters for natural gas are needed in coal mining, nitric acid plants, power plants, organic chemical synthesis plants, and petroleum refineries.To learn more please visit:https://www.silverinstruments.com/natural-gas-flow-meter-types.html
