Butane can be found in many households as it is filled in portable gas cylinders and used as a household fuel that can power anything from gas grills to heaters. But butane is found in

Working with hazardous gases, flammable gases, and toxic gases can become dangerous extremely quickly. Hazardous area industries often include petroleum extraction sites, refineries, natural gas processing, and other inherently hazardous environments.  The Dangers of Hazardous Areas Gas leaks and other unintended contamination can result in explosive consequences, physical harm, and the risk of fire.

Hydrocarbons are organic compounds consisting of only hydrogen and carbon atoms. Almost all hydrocarbons occur naturally in crude oils, such as petroleum and natural gas. The reason behind this is that crude oil is made of decomposed organic matter, which is abundant in hydrogen and carbon atoms. While hydrocarbons can be found in other natural
