“Kunzima ukuthenga insimbi manje,” kusho u-Adam Gazapian, umnikazi we-WB Tank & Equipment (Portage, Wisconsin), elungisa amathangi namasilinda ukuze adayiswe kabusha.“Kunesidingo esikhulu samasilinda e-propane;sidinga amathangi engeziwe nomsebenzi owengeziwe.”
EWorthington Industries (Worthington, Ohio), uMqondisi Wezentengiso uMark Komlosi uthe lo bhubhane usithinte kakhulu isidingo esinamandla samasilinda e-propane."Amabhizinisi kanye nabathengi batshale imali eyengeziwe ekwandiseni isizini yangaphandle," kusho uComlossi.“Ukuze benze lokhu, banemishini eminingi ye-propane kunaseminyakeni emibili noma emithathu edlule, ngaleyo ndlela beqhuba isidingo semikhiqizo yawo wonke amasayizi.Ngokubambisana namakhasimende ethu, abakhangisi be-LPG, abasabalalisi kanye nabadayisi Uma sikhuluma nebhizinisi, sikholelwa ukuthi lo mkhuba ngeke wehle ezinyangeni ezingama-24 ezizayo.”
"I-Worthington iyaqhubeka nokwethula imikhiqizo emisha ukusiza abathengi kanye nemakethe babe nolwazi olungcono lwemikhiqizo yethu futhi bakhulise ukusebenza kahle," kusho uKomlosi."Ngokusekelwe emininingwaneni esiyitholele amakhasimende nabathengi, sakha uchungechunge lwemikhiqizo."
UKomlosi uthe intengo nokuhlinzekwa kwensimbi kube nomthelela emakethe."Silindele ukuthi lokhu kube njalo esikhathini esizayo," esho.“Iseluleko esihle kakhulu esingasinika abakhangisi ukuhlela izidingo zabo ngangokunokwenzeka.Izinkampani ezihlelayo… ziwina izintengo kanye nempahla.”
UGazapian uthe inkampani yakhe yenza yonke imizamo ukuhlangabezana nesidingo samasilinda ensimbi.UGazapian uthe maphakathi noMashi 2021: "Kuleli sonto nje, sinamaloli amasilinda egesi athunyelwe esuka efektri yethu yaseWisconsin eya eTexas, Maine, North Carolina naseWashington."
“Amasilinda avuselelwe ngopende omusha namavalvu eRegO enziwe eMelika abiza u-$340.Lezi zijwayele ukuba zintsha ngo-$550,” usho kanje."Izwe lethu njengamanje libhekene nezinselelo zomnotho eziningi, futhi konke ukonga kuyasiza."
Uveze ukuthi abasebenzisi abaningi bokugcina basebenzisa amasilinda egesi angamaphawundi angu-420 ekhaya, angabamba cishe amalitha angu-120 we-propane.“Lokhu kungaba yisinqumo sabo esingcono kakhulu njengamanje ngenxa yoxhaso oluncane.Lezi zisilinda ezingamakhilogremu angu-420 zingabekwa yindlu ngaphandle kwezindleko ezihambisana nokumba nokubeka amapayipi angaphansi komhlaba.Uma besebenzisa amalitha amaningi ngamasilinda abo, bagcina sebengonga Izindleko zingatholakala ethangini likaphethiloli elingamagalani angu-500, ngoba kuncane ukudiliva ezindlini zabo okungajwayelekile futhi kungase konge izindleko,” usho kanje.
I-American Cylinder Exchange (West Palm Beach, Florida) isebenzisa ukulethwa kwamasilinda ezindaweni zamadolobha amakhulu ayi-11 e-United States.Uzakwethu uMike Gioffre uthe i-COVID-19 ikhombise kuphela ukwehla kwevolumu okuthathe ihlobo lonke.
"Kusukela lapho, sesibonile ukubuyela ezingeni elijwayelekile," esho.“Sesisungule uhlelo lokulethwa okungenamaphepha, olusekhona nanamuhla, futhi osekusengenzeka lube yingxenye yaphakade yokulethwa kwethu.Ngaphezu kwalokho, sisungule ngempumelelo izindawo zokusebenza ezikude zabanye abasebenzi bethu abaphethe, okubaluleke kakhulu kithi Kuyinqubo engenamthungo kumakhasimende ethu, futhi kukhawulele ukuba khona kwethu ezindaweni ezinkulu lapho ubhubhane ludla lubi.”
I-LP Cylinder Service Inc. (Shohola, Pennsylvania) yinkampani yokulungisa isilinda eyatholwa yi-Quality Steel ngo-2019 futhi inamakhasimende engxenyeni esempumalanga ye-United States.Tennessee, Ohio kanye neMichigan,” kusho uChris Ryman, iphini likamongameli wezokusebenza.“Sisebenzela amabhizinisi asekhaya kanye nezinkampani ezinkulu.”
U-Lehman uthe ngalo bhubhane, ukulungiswa kabusha kwebhizinisi kukhule kakhulu."Njengoba abantu abaningi behlala ekhaya futhi besebenza ekhaya, sibona ngempela ukwanda okukhulu kwesidingo samasilinda namasilinda angama-20 wamajenaretha kaphethiloli, adume kakhulu ngesikhathi sokucima kukagesi."
Izintengo zensimbi nazo zibangela isidingo samasilinda ensimbi avuselelwe."Intengo yamasilinda egesi iya ngokuya ikhuphuka, futhi kwesinye isikhathi amasilinda egesi amasha awatholakali nhlobo," esho.URyman uthe ukukhula kwesidingo samasilinda egesi akuqhutshwanga nje kuphela yimikhiqizo emisha ephilayo yangaphandle emagcekeni ezweni lonke, kodwa nangabantu abasha abasuka emadolobheni amakhulu.“Lokhu kudale isidingo esikhulu samasilinda engeziwe ukuze akwazi ukubhekana nokusetshenziswa okuhlukahlukene.Ukushisisa ikhaya, izindawo zokuhlala zangaphandle kanye nesidingo samajeneretha kaphethiloli we-propane yizo zonke izici eziqhuba isidingo samasilinda osayizi abahlukahlukene.”
Uveze ukuthi ubuchwepheshe obusha ku-monitor ekude kwenza kube lula ukulandelela umthamo we-propane ku-cylinder.“Amasilinda kagesi amaningi anesisindo esingamakhilogremu angu-200 kuya phezulu anamamitha.Ngaphezu kwalokho, uma ithangi lingaphansi kwezinga elithile, ama-monitor amaningi angahlela ngokuqondile ikhasimende ukuthi lilethe ubuchwepheshe,” usho kanje.
Ngisho nekheji libone ubuchwepheshe obusha.“E-Home Depot, amakhasimende asikho isidingo sokuthi athole isisebenzi esizovala isikhala sika-20 pound.Ikheji manje selifakwe ikhodi, futhi amakhasimende angakwazi ukuvula ikheji futhi alishintshe ngokwalo ngemva kokukhokha.”Waqhubeka uRyman.Kuso sonke lesi sifo esiwubhubhane, isidingo sendawo yokudlela yamasilinda ensimbi besinamandla ngoba indawo yokudlela yengeze izihlalo zangaphandle ukuze zikwazi ukwamukela inqwaba yamakhasimende abake bakwazi ukukhonza ngaphakathi.Kwezinye izimo, ukuqhelelana komphakathi ezingxenyeni eziningi zezwe kunciphisa umthamo wezindawo zokudlela ube ngama-50% noma ngaphansi.
"Isidingo sama-heaters e-patio siye sakhula ngokushesha, futhi abakhiqizi bebelokhu bezama ukuhambisana," kusho uBryan Cordill, umqondisi wokuthuthukiswa kwebhizinisi lezindawo zokuhlala nezohwebo ePropane Education and Research Council (PERC)."Kubantu abaningi baseMelika, amasilinda ensimbi angamakhilogremu angama-20 angamasilinda ensimbi abawajwayele kakhulu ngoba athandwa kakhulu kuma-grill e-barbecue nasezindaweni eziningi zokuhlala ngaphandle."
U-Cordill uthe i-PERC ngeke ixhase ngokuqondile ukuthuthukiswa nokukhiqizwa kwemikhiqizo emisha ephilayo yangaphandle.“Uhlelo lwethu lwamasu lufuna ukuthi sigxile ekuphileleni ngaphandle ngaphandle kokutshala imali emikhiqizweni emisha,” usho kanje.“Sitshala imali ekukhangiseni futhi siqhakambisa umqondo womsebenzi wangaphandle wasekhaya.Imigodi yomlilo, amatafula angaphandle anezinto zokushisisa nge-propane kanye nemikhiqizo eyengeziwe kuthuthukisa umqondo wokuthi imindeni ikwazi ukuchitha isikhathi esiningi ingaphandle.”
Umqondisi wokuthuthukiswa kwamabhizinisi angekho emigwaqeni e-PERC uMat McDonald (Matt McDonald) uthe: “Izindawo zezimboni kulo lonke elase-United States kuxoxwa ngazo mayelana ne-propane nogesi.“Ngenxa yezinzuzo ezehlukene ezilethwa yi-propane, isidingo se-propane siyaqhubeka nokwanda.UMacDonald uthe ukuphathwa kwempahla ezindaweni zokugcina izimpahla ezimatasa akudingi ukuthi kume ukuze kushajwe ibhethri."Abasebenzi bangashintsha ngokushesha amasilinda e-propane angenalutho ngamasilinda agcwele," esho.“Lokhu kungaqeda isidingo sama-forklift engeziwe kanye nokubizayo Isidingo sengqalasizinda eshintshwayo kagesi yokushaja ibhethri uma umsebenzi kufanele uqhubeke.”
Yiqiniso, izinzuzo zemvelo ze-propane zingesinye isici esikhulu esiqala ukuhambisana nabaphathi bezindawo zokugcina impahla."Amakhodi wokwakha aya ngokuya egxila ekwehliseni i-carbon footprint nokuvikela impilo yabasebenzi," kusho uMcDonald."Ukusebenzisa i-propane kungenza imisebenzi yezimboni yasendlini indawo ehlanzekile nenempilo."
"Imboni yokuqashisa enezela imishini eyengeziwe esebenza ku-propane izosisiza senze inqubekelaphambili enkulu ku-propane," kuqhubeka uMcDonald.“Amachweba ezindawo zemikhumbi nawo ahlinzeka ngamathuba amakhulu e-propane.Kunenqwaba yempahla emachwebeni asogwini okumele ihambe ngokushesha, nendawo yechweba ingaphansi kwengcindezi yokuhlanza imvelo.”
Ubale imishini eminingana ethole ukunakwa ngokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni nokuthuthukisa izinga lomoya wasendlini.“Imishini kakhonkolo, ama-forklift, izimoto zikagesi, izinto zokuphakamisa isikele, izigayi zikakhonkolo, abapholisha ukhonkolo, ama-stripper aphansi, amasaha kakhonkolo, nezinto zokuhlanza ukhonkolo konke kuyimishini ekwazi ukusebenzisa i-propane futhi ithuthukise ngempela umthelela wemvelo wasendlini,” kusho uMike Downer.
Amasilinda egesi ayinhlanganisela alula asetshenziswa kakhulu emhlabeni wonke, kodwa ukuthuthukiswa kwamasilinda egesi ayinhlanganisela akubanga ngokushesha kangako.“Amasilinda ayinhlanganisela anezinzuzo eziningi,” kusho uSean Ellen, umqondisi ophethe weViking Cylinders (Heath, Ohio).“Manje umehluko wentengo phakathi kwamasilinda ayinhlanganisela namasilinda ensimbi uya ngokuya uncipha, futhi inkampani icwaninga ngokucophelela ngenzuzo yethu.”
U-Ellen ugcizelele ukuthi isisindo esilula sesilinda siyinzuzo enkulu ye-ergonomics.“Amasilinda ethu e-forklift-uma elayishwe ngokugcwele-angaphansi kwamaphawundi angu-50 futhi athobela ngokugcwele imikhawulo yokuphakamisa enconyiwe ye-OSHA.Izindawo zokudlela okufanele zishintshe amasilinda ngokushesha ngesikhathi sokuphithizela kwesidlo sakusihlwa zithanda kakhulu ukuthi kulula kangakanani ukuphatha amasilinda ethu.”
Waveza ukuthi amasilinda ensimbi ngokuvamile anesisindo esingamakhilogremu angu-70 lapho amasilinda ensimbi egcwele ne-aluminium engaba amakhilogremu angu-60."Uma usebenzisa i-aluminium noma amasilinda ensimbi, lapho ushintsha, kufanele ube nabantu ababili abalayisha futhi behlisa ithangi le-propane."
Waveza nezinye izici.“Amasilinda aklanywe futhi avivinywa ukuthi angangeni emoyeni futhi angagqwali, ngaleyo ndlela ehlise ubungozi kanye nezindleko zokuwunakekela.”“Emhlabeni wonke, senze inqubekelaphambili eyengeziwe ekushintsheni amasilinda ensimbi,” kusho u-Allen.“Emhlabeni wonke, inkampani yethu engumzali, iHexagon Ragasco, isicishe ibe yizigidi ezingu-20.Le nkampani isineminyaka engama-20 ikhona.ENyakatho Melika, ukutholwa bekuhamba kancane kunalokho ebesikulindele.Sesineminyaka engu-15 sise-United States.Sithole [ukuthi] Uma sesikwazi ukuthola isilinda ezandleni zothile, siba nethuba elihle lokumguqula.”
U-Obie Dixon, umqondisi wezentengiso weWin Propane e-Weaver, e-Iowa, uthe imikhiqizo emisha yeViking Cylinders iyingxenye ebalulekile emikhiqizweni yabo.“Amasilinda ensimbi asazokhethwa ngamanye amakhasimende, kanti amasilinda ayinhlanganisela azokhethwa ngamanye,” kusho uDixon.
Ngenxa yezinzuzo ze-ergonomic zamasilinda anesisindo esilula, amakhasimende ezimboni ze-Dixon ayajabula ukuthi ashintshela kumasilinda ayinhlanganisela.“Izindleko zamasilinda zisaphansi,” kusho uDixon.“Kodwa-ke, uma kubhekwa izinzuzo zokuvimbela ukugqwala, i-Sea World inezinye izinzuzo.Lesi esinye isibonelo lapho amakhasimende ekholelwa nokuthi lezi zinzuzo zifanele noma yiziphi izindleko ezengeziwe.”
