Propane (LPG)
Feedstock: Natural Gas
Refinery Fraction: Natural Gas Liquids
The Engineering Blueprint
- Refinery Parent: Propane (C3H8)
- Process: NGL Fractionation
- Tray Position: Gas Fraction (Top)
The Realist Argument
Energy sovereignty for rural populations depends on the gas-chain. Propane provides a "mobile pipeline," allowing high-grade thermal energy to reach locations the grid cannot touch.
Human Impact & Utility
A portable, high-energy-density fuel essential for off-grid heating, cooking, and industrial drying.
