The Oxy-acetylene flame is much hotter and the preferred combination for the welder especially when welding pipe and plate metal. Somewhat of a rare welding procedure in modern times. Replaced by arc welding.
Liquid Propane Gas burns cooler and is preferred by employers as it is cheaper. Not bad results on light gauge material, again takes longer to heat up.

LPG stands for Liquified Propane Gas. So the difference chemically is that one of them is butane (4 carbons) and the other is propane (3 carbons).
lpg is liquified petroleum gas which is butane petrol is another by product of petroleum which is a mixture of 2-3 hydrocabons
NGL is the product seperated from Natural Gas stream through Cryogenic seperations and it contains Heaviour Hydrocarbons Like C2+. LPG is a product of further fractionation of NGL and it contains Liquified Butane & Propane.
LPG, also known as propane, is liquefied natural gas. Piped natural gas has not been liquefied and remains in a gas form.
Natural gas as it comes out of wells, typically must be processed to remove impurities and ensure quality standards. The gas processing plant may produce LPG, which will burn at higher temperature and contain higher molecular weight alkanes than methane.
What type of welding can we use LPG ?
ARC welding uses large amounts of electricity to melt the metal, not a hot flame. So no, LPG cannot be used for ARC welding.

No difference what so ever. The only difference is in pricing because road use taxes are added to motor fuel LPG.
What is the difference between properties of CNG and LPG?

Yes, but you need to get hold of the correct small nozzle.
LPG is liquid petroleum gas and oxy-acetylene is oxy fuel welding. The LPG can be used as an alternative to oxy-acetylene and is cheaper and can be purchased in bulk. The oxy-acetylene is best used when making shorter, thinner, and faster cuttings.
LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is the same regardless of its end use.
NGL is the product seperated from Natural Gas stream through Cryogenic seperations and it contains Heaviour Hydrocarbons Like C2+. LPG is a product of further fractionation of NGL and it contains Liquified Butane & Propane.
There is no difference unless the commercial application is used as a propellant then it will not have the ethyl mercaptan added which gives it the strong odor.
