Methane is a colorless, odorless, and non-toxic gas. However, it is highly flammable and explosive. When mixed with more than 4% air, it can ignite and explode in a dangerous manner. Therefore, it is important to keep methane away from heat, sparks, and flames.
Methane is widely used in various industries. It is used in gas stoves, electricity generation, factories, biogas facilities, motor testing stages, and reactor coolers.
