Basic Training Information for Liquid Petroleum Gas
Liquefied petroleum gas contains 90 percent propane and has no smell or color. This fuel, also known as LPG, derives from natural gas. LPG is extracted utilizing a process called distilling.

Considerations
Liquid petroleum gas should be handled with care. Though it is generally considered safe, it can result in an explosion or fire if the gas lines are not maintained or have not been properly installed. Correct maintenance and installation guidelines must be followed for home appliances that use LPG.

Prevention
Personnel who work directly with liquid petroleum gas must undertake training in accident prevention to ensure safe handling. There are refueling procedures that must be followed carefully. Personnel must also be taught how to recognize hazards like for example loose fittings or damaged hoses, and how to test for potential leaks. Personal protective gear must be worn when working with liquid petroleum gas.

Emergency Preparation
Liquid Petroleum Gas is a potentially volatile gas. Personnel handling LPG must be taught to respond correctly to emergencies. Trainees would be taught how to administer first aid, how to evacuate places at risk, and how to control gas leaks.

A lot of forklift models are powered by LPG. Around 350,000 U.S. vehicles and 3.5 million motor vehicles all over the world use liquid petroleum gas tanks.
