Main uses: Used as raw material for petrochemical industry, can also be used as fuel.

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is mainly used as petrochemical raw material for cracking hydrocarbons to ethylene or steam conversion to syngas, and can be used as industrial, civil and internal combustion engine fuel. Its main quality control indicators are evaporation residues and sulfur content, and sometimes olefin content is controlled. Liquefied petroleum gas is a kind of flammable substance, when the content in the air reaches a certain concentration range, it will explode in the event of an open flame.
