Global levels of ethane and propane in the atmosphere have been underestimated by more than 50 percent, new research has revealed. These hydrocarbons are particularly harmful in large cities where ...

Pembina Pipeline Corporation ("Pembina" or the “Company”) (TSX: PPL; NYSE: PBA) announced today that it has entered into a ...

The isotopic compositions of hydrocarbon compounds are like a fingerprint. They can clearly indicate the way in which hydrocarbons like methane, ethane, propane, butane and pentane are formed.

Atco Energy Solutions Ltd. has entered a partnership with Petrogas Energy Corp. to develop underground salt caverns near Fort Saskatchewan as storage for large quantities of propane, butane and ...

How does this hydrocarbon fuel (C3H8) get off calling itself green? Well, according to the Propane Education and Research Council, burning it in a spark-ignition engine results in 18 percent less ...

The problem appears to result from a widespread switch to 'Greenfreeze' technology over the past 15 years and the use of isobutane and propane hydrocarbon gases as refrigerants.

The other 10% is made up of propane, butane and ethane -- or LPG. In order to transport the produced gas, the LPG must be separated from the methane. LPG is also created when crude oil is refined.
