2.3 Other hazards

Description of hazard

Health hazards

Extremely flammable. In high concentrations the gas may cause slight dizziness and have an anaesthetic effect. In even higher concentrations, reduced consciousness and asphyxiation may result due to oxygen displacement. LNG/LBG may cause severe freezing injuries on skin or on eyes. Safety hazards: Natural gas is lighter than air and together with air forms a flammable/explosive mixture of air and gas.

Environmental hazards

The product is not classified as harmful for the environment.
