Liquid Propane Gas (Liquified petroleum gas, LP Gas, LPG, GPL, autogas) is a clean-burning flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases used for fuel in vehicles and heating appliances. It is made by mixing propane with butane, in varying amounts, depending on the season. It is also used as an aerosol propellant and refrigerant, in an effort to reduce damage to our dwindling ozone layer.

As a fuel, the liquefied form is easier to dispense and store than a high-pressure gas would be, and as a propellant, it does not affect the ozone layer as chlorofluorocarbons would.
