Natural Gas as a Major Alternative Energy Source for the Transition to Sustainable Renewable Energy: A Mini Review

A A E Sakr

Natural gas (NG) is a naturally occurring combination of gaseous hydrocarbons that forms under the surface of the earth. When transported, stored, and used as an energy source, NG is regarded as the cleanest fossil fuel. Methane is the main component of natural gas (NG), however depending on where it comes from, it may also contain C2+ hydrocarbons, N2, CO2, He, H2S, and noble gases. To remove components besides methane, several gas processing procedures might be used.

The foundations of NG origin, composition, and processing are reviewed in this article due to the significance of NG as a fuel and the rising global demand for it.
