Higher Heating Values of Natural Gases From Various Sources
The International Energy Agency reports the following typical higher heating values:
- Algeria: 42,000 kJ/m³
- Bangladesh: 36,000 kJ/m³
- Canada: 38,200 kJ/m³
- Indonesia: 40,600 kJ/m³
- Netherlands: 33,320 kJ/m³
- Norway: 39,877 kJ/m³
- Pakistan: 34,900 kJ/m³
- Russia: 38,231 kJ/m³
- Saudi Arabia: 38,000 kJ/m³
- United Kingdom: 39,710 kJ/m³
- United States: 38,416 kJ/m³
- Uzbekistan: 37,889 kJ/m³
The lower heating value of natural gas is normally about 90 percent of its higher heating val.

Famous quotes containing the words higher, heating, values, natural, gases and/or sources:
“By going one step further back in thought, discordant opinions are reconciled by being seen to be two extremes of one principle, and we can never go so far back as to preclude a still higher vision.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“If the factory people outside the colleges live under the discipline of narrow means, the people inside live under almost every other kind of discipline except that of narrow means—from the fruity austerities of learning, through the iron rations of English gentlemanhood, down to the modest disadvantages of occupying cold stone buildings without central heating and having to cross two or three quadrangles to take a bath.”
—Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
“Our first line of defense in raising children with values is modeling good behavior ourselves. This is critical. How will our kids learn tolerance for others if our hearts are filled with hate? Learn compassion if we are indifferent? Perceive academics as important if soccer practice is a higher priority than homework?”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
“The very natural tendency to use terms derived from traditional grammar like verb, noun, adjective, passive voice, in describing languages outside of Indo-European is fraught with grave possibilities of misunderstanding.”
—Benjamin Lee Whorf (1897–1934)
“The bird is not in its ounces and inches, but in its relations to Nature; and the skin or skeleton you show me, is no more a heron, than a heap of ashes or a bottle of gases into which his body has been reduced, is Dante or Washington.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I count him a great man who inhabits a higher sphere of thought, into which other men rise with labor and difficulty; he has but to open his eyes to see things in a true light, and in large relations; whilst they must make painful corrections, and keep a vigilant eye on many sources of error.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
