What's Cool about LNG? Everything!

This is an LNG properties demonstration of the basic characteristics. A sampling of short video vignettes demonstrating the physical properties of LNG including what happens when LNG is ignited, spilled onto water, spilled onto land, etc. The idea was developed to introduce the "new" fuel to audiences around the world but particularly in the Americas where the fuel is relatively new to communities and general consumers.

[@AlphaGeminorum1]

One thing not mentioned was what happens when LNG evaporates. It's non-toxic to us as it does so. But it's methane, which is a HIGHLY destructive greenhouse gas. It lasts a very long time in the atmosphere as it contributes to global climate change.

[@atari7001]

That's a good reason to recover it from the oceans, landfills & sewage treatment plants for use before it escapes.

[@danielhutchinson6604]

@@atari7001 There is a process to convert Municipal Sewage to Fuel. It has been done. Asswipes like Shell and Chevron do not want it to happen.

[@00060850]

The ideal these folks are trying to explain is that you burn the methane and don't release it to the atmosphere plus just because a bunch of scientist where paid a big grant to come to your conclusion about global climate change doesn't mean that methane is a HIGHLY destructive greenhouse gas.

Thank you for your knowledge. I came to watch your clip when my country is having high electricity bills right now. Because Thai government agencies do not manage well. Causing LNG to be imported during the price range of up to $ 50, which is 5 times more expensive than the normal price. This caused the Thai people to pay nearly twice as much for electricity.

[@gsilva220]

How much pressure would it take to keep methane liquid at ambient temperature?

[@jbuenaventura7647]

Nope. Gas has lower CO2 emissions than black coal when burned for electricity, but LNG developments also leak methane, which is a relatively short-lived gas that lasts in the atmosphere about 12 years but still has a warming power about 28 times greater than the same amount of CO2 when calculated over a century.

What is the greenhouse effect that LNG would have on the atmosphere in the event of a large spill? Just because something doesn't poison the ground, doesn't mean it isn't bad for the environment in large quantities

[@identifiesas65.wheresmyche95]

methane is a potent greenhouse gas for whatever that's worth, but I really wouldn't worry about the tiny amounts (seen from the big picture) that a spill results in. instead worry about all the fossil fuels that are burned on purpose every day!

[@mattisuoraniemi]

@@identifiesas65.wheresmyche95 Many cruise ships use LNG, and the engines leak methane a terrifying amount. Overall cruise ships' share in traveling emissions is huge.

[@identifiesas65.wheresmyche95]

[@kunalchiplunkar]

It's LNG similar to CNG

[@sajan_paul]

Natural Gas is only useful if you have a Natural Gas source near you LNG has several drawbacks compared to alternative sources such as other crude oils and LPG. The extraction process for LNG is a threat to underground freshwater sources and it also compromises soil integrity. Additionally, the liquefaction of LNG demands an extensive amount of energy, contributing to increased environmental strain. Furthermore, the processing of LNG releases substantial amounts of methane In terms of distribution, LNG relies on either pipelines or ships, both of which incur higher costs compared to conventional fuel transportation methods. Moreover, despite these drawbacks, LNG fails to deliver a substantial amount of energy, making it a less efficient choice overall

[@dzysyak]

[@anaid5387]

What’s cool about LNG? I see what u did there 😎

[@djulioperfumereview]

Does this LNG is the same as liquid nitrogen that used in molecular gastronomy?

[@yoericktv9610]

I think liquid natural gas is different than liquid nitrogen, they're composed differently. An apple isn't an orange although they're both fruits.

[@mickw7152]

No. One contains hydrocarbon compounds of Ethane and Methane, the other contains only the element, Nitrogen.

[@musicalintuition]

When LNG evaporates, does it contribute to global warming?

[@trihard7323]

yeah natural gas is methane

[@Riptide360]

Thanks for the Liquid Natural Gas demo. The demonstrations are useful, but I wish you would talk more about some of the issues with LNG. Only showing the positive makes people distrustful of the negatives. Should LNG have an odorant added like Natural Gas does to make sure people know when there is a leak? LNG is still considered a greenhouse gas and a contributor to global warming when you let it boil off into the atmosphere. Can anyone explain how the LNG candle worked? If you have to get it super hot to ignite how are you making a candle from it?

[@despikandi7049]

The candle was not made from LNG, it was a normal paraffin candle I assume. They lighted it to demonstrate how much less residues the Natural gas' exhaust gases have compared to that paraffin candle.

[@bigshnitzeljesse]

despi kandi They said one candle was a natural gas candle.

[@bigshnitzeljesse]

I'd imagine all consumer gases would have an added odorant added and the candle could have been gas form with some kind of regulator. As for greenhouse gas, let's be real, its a huge oil company that has and will keep disputing global warming.

[@bossjun5754]

LNG Candle will work if you have more than 1000 °F ignition source plus the 5% to 15% oxygen ratio in the area. If you use a air butane torches where the flame temperatures up to approximately 1,430 °C (2,610 °F) surely will fire up, as they explain in the video that LNG vapors will only ignite in more than 1000 °F ignition source.

[@marvistv6551]

Why do you want the bad side. Everything has a negative side and you’ve to deal with it.

[@martinfrederickgraafland3022]

How much energy does it take to make LNG? (And to turn it back into Natural gas)

[@yoericktv9610]

Good question. I can answer one of those questions for you. To turn LNG back in its gas form, simply let it warm up to room temperature. I wouldn't want to heat up its container, knowing the increase in pressure levels can exceed the container's maximum psi and the results can be lethal. I'd like to know what equipment is used to freeze natural gas.

[@Dr_Xyzt]

So, if you were to hypothetically procure LNG, it would need to be refrigerated at all times, or else it will warm up and burst the container. Correct?

[@yoericktv9610]

Guns Cars and Digits, correct. Unless you were to use the same container used to turn the gas into liquid for transportation. In that case, the said container will have enough room for the expanded gas. But that beats the purpose of turning NG into LNG for transportation reasons.

[@Dr_Xyzt]

Had to clarify that to make it incontrovertible. When I got out of engineering school and saw LNG, I thought, "Oh, did they chemically treat it?" and then I heard the phrase, "Cooled" and thought "Ah great, we're making a bomb." Now that I think about it though, if an LNG tank bursts and it's full to the brim, it shouldn't be a violent blast like a CNG tank. The liquid occupies space, so the tank bursts and a smaller adiabatic volume is the initial burst volume, right? Then the rest of the fluid gasifies. I don't like tanks over 250 psi. When they burst, it's dangerous and guaranteed hearing damage. I like fuels such as DME, Methanol, or Xylene. Are you interested in that type of stuff?

[@yoericktv9610]

Guns Cars and Digits "...it shouldn't be a violent blast like a CNG tank" i think the damage can be quite the same since we're dealing with pressure levels. As temperature increases from -260F (-160C), the LNG starts to evaporate and begins to fill whatever space is available. If said gas has nowhere to go, you can expect a bomb-like explosion occurrence. Another factor to consider is the pressure levels the "container" can handle. As for DME, Methenol or other natural gas resources, of course i'm interested. I plan to use this "technology" to provide electricity to the masses in rural Africa and Asia.

Reminds me of when they made the case to replace coal with petroleum. 100 years later, "Oops!"

[@a-a-ron4679]

What else would we use? You say they, like only certain people are using and taking advantage of oil and gas. We will always need fossil fuels. There’s is no substance on this planet that can come close to oil. Millions of products are made from oil. The only way we will advance energy sources like wind, solar, and battery technology is through investment which leads to greater research and development. But that takes money. The world’s economy is based on fossil fuels. This relentless demonization and over regulation of fossil fuels will only hurt that. Whether you like it or not civilization as we know it would cease to exist without oil and gas. Whatever crisis you think this planet is in due to fossil fuels will pale in comparison to a world without them. Facts. Look at what’s happening right now because of the extreme policies that have been implemented over the past year in regards to fossil fuels. It’s absolutely crazy and naïve to think we can go without fossil fuels. Everything comes from, or is a result of oil and gas. Everything. Without them, we’d be living in the 16th century and that’s not going to happen.

[@jon_s]

@@a-a-ron4679 I say "they" in reference to the custodians of Western Civilization/Modernization who make all these discoveries and decisions to popularize what they seem to think is right, consequences to the health of the planet is often at least decades after-thought. "We will always need fossil fuels". That's because it was decided for you long ago that that's the way to go. You're not a part of the cartel that commercialized the discovery of oil and if you weren't born to see things done this way, you'd have a different opinion. "The world's economy is based on fossil fuel", again, that decision was not made by the world. It's the European hegemony and their monolithic impositons that decide for the rest of the world. For example, there are tribes on this earth that would never accept any values that are contrary to the balance of nature nor conceive the idea to commercialize and therefore overly exploit any type of natural resources in exchange for overly-valued (as determined by the west) pieces of paper known as fiat currency. Of course those tribes had to be attacked, conquered, enslaved and colonized by the Europeans for having too much concern for the preservation of nature over capitalist greed. You have apparently been indoctrinated to see those pro-nature ethnic tribes as nothing but primitive. However, they had the wisdom to live in harmony with nature rather than against it. They had the knowledge to keep things cold all summer long without electricity. They cured diseases without synthetic chemicals that create more problems than they solve, etc. And nothing they did was to the expense of the health of this planet. Today, here we are talking about solving the fossil fuel problem by introducing another problem. It never ends

[@DG-gq2fz]

How does a LNG spill destroy ozone layer.. any ideas, Shell?

[@MrKotBonifacy]

What, you've been sleeping on chemistry classes, haven't you? LNG stands for "liquified NATURAL gas", and that NATURAL (!) gas is methane - that thing that decaying organic matter releases; which goes up from marshes, bogs, rice paddies (do you plan on stopping eating rice anytime soon?), and it constitutes a significant part of the gas cows release from their... other ends (any plans for massive culling of cows? no...? Oh, pity...) Methane rises slowly through atmosphere, as it is sligtly ligter than air. When methane molecule gets hit with UV light (the higher, the more UV light, remember?) it basically decomposes/ oxydises into water vapour and carbon dioxide. But WHY anyone with access to internet (-> Wikipedia) can still ask such a dumb question is beyond my comprehension. Beam me up, Scotty...

[@papaal7014]

LNG a strong greenhouse gas; true?

[@Zossarian12]

Yes, LNG is methane. And methane is a very strong ghg.

[@louisbrandon6012]

If directly in the atmosphere, methane is a strong greenhouse gas (which happens with cow farts for example) but in this case the gas is consumed and when the combustion occurs, it transform methane into carbon dioxyde, heat and water. Therefore, for equivalent energy production LNG combustion creates less greenhouse gases than oil. One very important aspect of natural gas is also the fact that it releases less thin particles than other fuels.
