Substituting LPG for CNG



Because LPG produces more energy than CNG, it cannot simply be substituted for natural gas. Only gases that have the same Wobbe index are interchangeable. For LPG to have the same Wobbe index as CNG, it has to be mixed with air. A 60:40 ratio for LPG:air mixing is common but it depends upon the composition of LPG because LPG itself is a mixture of propane and butane. This mixture of LPG and air to substitute natural gas is called synthetic natural gas (SNG). Use of SNG is common before the CNG distribution network is fully operational.
