Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) primarily consists of methane (CH₄) and smaller proportions of ethane (C₂H₆).
Coal Gas, a gaseous fuel obtained from coal, contains major constituents such as hydrogen (H₂), methane (CH₄), and carbon monoxide (CO).
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is mainly composed of butane (C₄H₁₀) and propane (C₃H₈), serving as a common fuel for domestic and industrial applications.
Water Gas is a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H₂), typically produced by passing steam over hot carbon.
