LNG - Overview
Liquefied natural gas or LNG is natural gas (predominantly methane) that has been chilled to -200F (or colder) to convert it to liquid form for ease of storage or transportation.
LNG fuel is stored in a double walled, stainless steel tank, the space between the inter & outer tank is vacuum sealed much like a thermos.
Except storage there is no difference between LNG and CNG systems
