propane is in an orange cylinder, when it has a screw in type valve, or green cylinder if it has the snap on type valve, eg for patio heaters and is generally branded as patio gas. Butane is usually in a blue cylinder, butane has similar properties to propane, but a lower boiling point, so generally freezes if the ambient temperature is too low and stops boiling off to gas.

Yellow is the color code for propane gas lines. This makes it easier to identify for things such as inspection or locating a problem.

In the US, there is NO standard color code for gas cylinders. At the moment, I have propane cylinders that are white, dark blue, light blue and green. That will vary region to region.

Who invented the propane tank regulator?

Alessandro Volta discovered methane in 1777.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"Methane" is a name used to describe the gas molecule. The formula is CH4.Butane can be written with the formula of C2H6.Propane, the stuff you burn in the stove, has the formula of C3H8.Now do you notice any similarities in the naming of these three gases?Notice that Meth- , But- , and Prop- is the only difference, but the ending -ane is to describe the type of molecule it is. The naming had been standardized by IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry), so people can't name things like Buttworthium for fart gas.
