Propane. Propane is flammable, noncorrosive, colorless and nontoxic. It also liquefies easily und pressure at atmospheric temperature and is one of the lightest hydrocarbons in liquid phases in the paraffin series. While propane is nontoxic, prolonged inhalation of high concentrations has an anesthetic effect.
While natural gas occurs in nature as a mixture of methane and other gases, propane is actually a byproduct of both petroleum refining and natural gas processing. Natural gas must be cleaned before being used, and byproducts of this process include hydrocarbons like propane in addition to butane, ethane, and pentane. The difference between propane and natural gas in domestic use comes down to their energy efficiency, cost, compression, storage, and risk factors. There is very little difference, however, when it comes to how well they perform in appliances for heating, cooking, or drying.
