"Kunzima ukuthenga intsimbi ngoku," watsho uAdam Gazapian, umnini weWB Tank & Equipment (Portage, Wisconsin), ehlaziya iitanki kunye neesilinda ukuze zithengiswe kwakhona. “Kukho imfuneko enkulu yeesilinda zepropane; sifuna amatanki amaninzi kunye nomsebenzi omninzi. "
Kwimizi-mveliso yaseWorthington (eWorthington, eOhio), uMlawuli weNtengiso uMark Komlosi uthe ubhubhane usichaphazele kakhulu imfuno emandla yeesilinda zepropane. “Amashishini kunye nabathengi benze utyalo-mali olongezelelweyo ekwandiseni ixesha langaphandle,” utshilo uComlossi. Ukuze benze oku, banezixhobo ezininzi zepropane kuneminyaka emibini okanye emithathu eyadlulayo, ngaloo ndlela beqhuba imfuno yeemveliso zabo bonke ubungakanani. Ngentsebenziswano nabathengi bethu, abathengisi beLPG, abasasazi kunye nabathengisi Xa sithetha neshishini, sikholelwa ukuba lo mkhwa awuzukuncipha kwiinyanga ezingama-24 ezizayo.
"I-Worthington iyaqhubeka nokwazisa iimveliso ezintsha zokunceda abathengi kunye nemarike babe namava angcono kwiimveliso zethu kunye nokwandisa ukusebenza kakuhle," kusho uKomlosi. "Ngokusekwe kulwazi esilufumene kubathengi nakubathengi, siphuhlisa uluhlu lweemveliso."
UKomlosi uthe zombini ixabiso kunye nokunikezelwa kwentsimbi kuye kwaba nefuthe kwimarike. “Silindele ukuba oku kube njalo kwixesha elizayo,” utshilo. “Elona cebiso lilungileyo esinokulinika abathengisi kukucwangcisa iimfuno zabo kangangoko. Iinkampani ezicwangcisayo… ziphumelele amaxabiso kunye ne-inventri. ”
UGazapian uthe inkampani yakhe yenza zonke iinzame zokuhlangabezana nemfuno yeesilinda zentsimbi. UGazapian uthe phakathi kuMatshi ka-2021: "Kule veki nje, sineelori zeesilinda zegesi ezithunyelwe zisuka kumzi-mveliso wethu waseWisconsin zisiya eTexas, Maine, North Carolina naseWashington."
“Iisilinda ezihlaziyiweyo ezinepeyinti entsha kunye neevalvu zeRegO ezenziwe eMerika zibiza i-$340. Ezi zikholisa ukuba zintsha ngeedola ezingama-550,” utshilo. "Ilizwe lethu ngoku lijongene nemiceli mngeni emininzi yezoqoqosho, kwaye yonke intwana yokonga iluncedo."
Wabonisa ukuba abaninzi abasebenzisi bokugqibela basebenzisa iisilinda zegesi ze-420-pound ekhaya, ezinokubamba malunga ne-120 yeegaloni zepropane. “Le inokuba yeyona ndlela yabo ilungileyo ngoku ngenxa yenkxaso-mali eqinileyo. Ezi zisilinda zeepounds ezingama-420 zinokubekwa yindlu ngaphandle kweendleko ezinxulumene nokumba kunye nokubeka imibhobho engaphantsi komhlaba. Ukuba baqhuba inani elikhulu leegaloni ngeesilinda zabo, baya kugqiba Ukongiwa kweendleko kunokufumaneka kwitanki yepetroli ye-500-gallon eqhelekileyo, kuba ukuhanjiswa okumbalwa kumakhaya abo kuncinci kwaye kunokonga iindleko, utshilo.
I-American Cylinder Exchange (i-West Palm Beach, eFlorida) iqhuba ukuhanjiswa kwe-cylinder kwiindawo ze-11 zedolophu e-United States. Umlingane uMike Gioffre uthe i-COVID-19 ibonise kuphela ukwehla kwexesha elifutshane lomthamo oqhubeke ehlotyeni.
“Ukusukela ngoko, sikubonile ukubuyela kwinqanaba eliqhelekileyo,” utshilo. “Siseke inkqubo yokuhanjiswa kweenkonzo 'okungenamaphepha', esekho nanamhla oku, kwaye ngoku kusenokwenzeka ukuba ibe yinxalenye esisigxina yenkqubo yethu yonikezelo. Ukongeza, siye saseka ngempumelelo iindawo zokusebenzela ezikude zabanye abasebenzi bethu bolawulo, nto leyo ibaluleke kakhulu kuthi Yinkqubo engenamthungo kubathengi bethu, kwaye ithintele ubukho bethu kwiindawo ezinkulu ekuphakameni kobhubhane. ”
I-LP Cylinder Service Inc. (iShohola, ePennsylvania) yinkampani yokuhlaziya i-cylinder eyafunyanwa yi-Quality Steel ngo-2019 kwaye inabathengi kwisiqingatha esisempuma se-United States. eTennessee, eOhio naseMichigan,” utshilo uChris Ryman, usekela mongameli wezokusebenza. “Sisebenzela ishishini lokuthengisa ikhaya kunye neenkampani ezinkulu. ”
U-Lehman uthe ngobhubhane, ukulungiswa kweshishini kunyuke kakhulu. “Njengokuba abantu abaninzi behlala ekhaya kwaye besebenza ekhaya, ngokuqinisekileyo sibona ukonyuka okukhulu kwemfuno yeesilinda zeeponti ezingama-20 kunye neesilinda zeejenereyitha zamafutha, ezidume kakhulu ngexesha lokucima kombane.
Amaxabiso entsimbi nawo aqhuba imfuno yeesilinda zentsimbi ezihlaziyiweyo. “Ixabiso leesilinda zerhasi liya linyuka ngokunyuka, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha iisilinda ezintsha zegesi azifumaneki kwaphela,” utshilo. URyman uthe ukukhula kwemfuno yeesilinda zegesi akuqhutywanga nje ziimveliso ezitsha zokuhlala ngaphandle kwiiyadi zelizwe lonke, kodwa nangabantu abatsha abahamba kude nezixeko ezikhulu. “Oku kubangele imfuno enkulu yeesilinda ezongezelelweyo ukuhlangabezana nokusetyenziswa ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo. Ukufudumeza ikhaya, usetyenziso lwangaphandle kunye nemfuno yeejeneretha ze-propane zonke zizinto eziqhuba imfuno yeesilinda ezinobukhulu obahlukeneyo.
Wabonisa ukuba iteknoloji entsha kwi-monitor ekude yenza kube lula ukulandelela umthamo wepropane kwi-cylinder. “Iisilinda zegesi ezininzi ezinobunzima obuziikhilogram ezingama-200 nangaphezulu zineemitha. Ukongeza, xa itanki ingaphantsi kwinqanaba elithile, abaninzi abajongayo banokulungiselela ngokuthe ngqo ukuba umthengi ahambise itekhnoloji, ”utshilo.
Nditsho nekheji ibone itekhnoloji entsha. “Kwi-Home Depot, abathengi akunyanzelekanga ukuba bafumane umsebenzi oza kuthatha indawo ye-20-pound cylinder. Ikheji ngoku ixhotyiswe ngekhowudi, yaye abathengi banokuvula ikheji baze bayitshintshe ngokwabo emva kokuba beyihlawule.” Waqhubeka uRyman. Ngalo lonke eli bhubhane, imfuno yendawo yokutyela yeesilinda zentsimbi ibinamandla kuba indawo yokutyela yongeze indawo yokuhlala yangaphandle ukuze ikwazi ukuhlalisa inani elikhulu labathengi ababekhe bakwazi ukukhonza ngaphakathi. Kwezinye iimeko, ukuhamba kude kwezentlalo kwiindawo ezininzi zelizwe kunciphisa umthamo wokutyela ukuya kuma-50% okanye ngaphantsi.
"Imfuno yokushisa i-patio iye yanda ngokukhawuleza, kwaye abavelisi baye bazama ukugcina," kusho uBryan Cordill, umlawuli wophuhliso lweshishini lokuhlala kunye nezorhwebo kwi-Propane Education and Research Council (PERC). "Kubantu abaninzi baseMelika, iisilinda zentsimbi eziziiponti ezingama-20 ziziisilinda zentsimbi abaziqhelileyo kakhulu kuba zithandwa kakhulu kwiigrill zebarbecue kunye neendawo ezininzi zokuhlala ngaphandle."
U-Cordill uthe i-PERC ayizukuxhasa ngokuthe ngqo uphuhliso kunye nokuveliswa kweemveliso ezintsha eziphilayo zangaphandle. “Isicwangciso sethu sobuchule sifuna ukuba sigxile kubomi bangaphandle ngaphandle kokutyala imali kwiimveliso ezintsha,” utshilo. “Sityala imali ekuthengiseni nasekukhuthazeni umbono wamava angaphandle ekhaya. Imigodi yomlilo, iitafile ezingaphandle ezinepropane zokufudumeza kunye neemveliso ezingakumbi ziyayiphucula ingcamango yokuba iintsapho zikwazi ukuchitha ixesha elingakumbi ngaphandle.”
Umlawuli wophuhliso lwamashishini angaphandle kwe-PERC uMat McDonald (Matt McDonald) uthe: “Iindawo zemizi-mveliso kulo lonke elase-United States ziyaxoxwa malunga nepropane nombane. “Ngenxa yeenzuzo ezahlukeneyo eziziswa yipropane, imfuno yepropane iyaqhubeka nokukhula. UMacDonald uthe ukuphatha izinto kwiindawo zokugcina izinto ezixakekileyo akufuneki kuyekwe ukutshaja ibhetri. "Abasebenzi banokutshintsha ngokukhawuleza iisilinda zepropane ezingenanto kunye neesilinda ezipheleleyo," watsho. “Oku kunokuphelisa imfuneko yeeforklift ezongezelelweyo kunye nexabiso eliphezulu Isidingo seziseko zombane ezitshintshiweyo zokutshaja ibhetri xa umsebenzi kufuneka uqhubeke. ”
Ngokuqinisekileyo, izibonelelo zokusingqongileyo zepropane yenye into ebalulekileyo eqala ukuhambelana nabaphathi beendawo zokugcina impahla. "Iikhowudi zokwakha zigxininisa ngakumbi ekunciphiseni i-carbon footprint kunye nokukhusela impilo yabasebenzi," kusho uMcDonald. "Ukusebenzisa ipropane kunokwenza imisebenzi yangaphakathi yemizi-mveliso ibe yindawo ecocekileyo nenempilo."
"Ishishini lokuqeshisa elongeza ngakumbi nangakumbi oomatshini abasebenza kwipropane kuya kusinceda senze inkqubela phambili enkulu kwipropane," uqhubeke watsho uMcDonald. “Amazibuko eendawo zokuthumela ngenqanawa akwabonelela ngamathuba amakhulu epropane. Kukho umthamo omkhulu wemithwalo kumazibuko aselunxwemeni ekufuneka ihambe ngokukhawuleza, kwaye indawo yezibuko iphantsi koxinzelelo lokucoca indalo.
Udwelise oomatshini abaninzi abafumene ingqalelo yokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwekhabhoni kunye nokuphucula umgangatho womoya wangaphakathi. "Izixhobo zekhonkrithi, iifolokhwe, izithuthi zombane, iilifti zescissor, iigrinder zekhonkrithi, iipolish zekhonkrithi, ii-floor strippers, iisarha zekhonkrithi, kunye nezicoci zekhonkrithi zekhonkrithi zonke zizixhobo ezinokusebenza kwipropane kwaye ziphucule ngokwenene impembelelo yendalo yangaphakathi," kusho uMike Downer.
Iisilinda zegesi ezihlanganisiweyo ezikhaphukhaphu zisetyenziswa ngakumbi nangakumbi kwihlabathi liphela, kodwa uphuhliso kwiisilinda zegesi ezidibeneyo azikhange zikhawuleze kangako. “Iisilinda ezihlanganisiweyo zineengenelo ezininzi,” watsho uSean Ellen, umlawuli olawulayo weViking Cylinders (Heath, Ohio). “Ngoku umahluko wamaxabiso phakathi kweesilinda eziyintlanganisela kunye neesilinda zentsimbi uyehla, yaye inkampani ihlolisisa ngocoselelo uncedo lwethu. ”
U-Ellen ugxininise ukuba ubunzima obulula be-cylinder yinzuzo enkulu ye-ergonomics. "Iisilinda zethu ze-forklift-xa zilayishwe ngokupheleleyo-zingaphantsi kweekhilogram ezingama-50 kwaye zithobela ngokupheleleyo imida yokunyusa ecetyiswayo ye-OSHA. Iindawo zokutyela ekufuneka zitshintshe iisilinda ngokukhawuleza ngexesha lokuxakeka kwesidlo sangokuhlwa ziyayithanda kakhulu indlela ekulula ngayo ukuphatha iisilinda zethu. ”
Wabonisa ukuba iisilinda zentsimbi zihlala zilinganisa malunga neekhilogram ezingama-70 xa isinyithi esipheleleyo kunye neesilinda ze-aluminium zimalunga neepounds ezingama-60. "Ukuba usebenzisa i-aluminiyam okanye iisilinda zetsimbi, xa utshintshela ngaphandle, kuya kufuneka ube nabantu ababini abalayishayo kwaye bothula itanki yepropane."
Kwakhona wabonisa ezinye iimpawu. “Iisilinda ziyilelwe kwaye zivavanywe ukuba zingangenwa moya kwaye zingabi nomhlwa, ngaloo ndlela zinciphisa umngcipheko kunye neendleko zokuzigcina.” “Ehlabathini lonke, senze inkqubela engakumbi ekutshintsheni iisilinda zentsimbi,” utshilo uAllen. “Ehlabathini lonke, inkampani yethu yabazali, iHexagon Ragasco, isondele kwizigidi ezingama-20 esasazwayo. Inkampani ikhona iminyaka engama-20. KuMntla Merika, ukukhulisa umntwana kuye kwacotha kunokuba besilindele. Sineminyaka eli-15 siseUnited States. Sifumene [ukuba] Nje ukuba sifumane isilinda ezandleni zomntu, sinethuba elihle lokuyiguqula.”
U-Obie Dixon, umlawuli wezentengiso weWin Propane e-Weaver, e-Iowa, wathi iimveliso ezintsha zeViking Cylinders ziyimfuneko ebalulekileyo kwiimveliso zabo. “Iisilinda zentsimbi ziya kuhlala zilukhetho lwabathengi abathile, ngelixa iisilinda ezihlanganisiweyo ziya kuba lukhetho lwabanye,” utshilo uDixon.
Ngenxa yeenzuzo ze-ergonomic zeesilinda ezinobunzima obulula, abathengi beefektri zeDixon bayonwabile ukuba batshintshela kwiisilinda ezidibeneyo. “Ixabiso leesilinda lisephantsi,” utshilo uDixon. “Nangona kunjalo, xa kuqwalaselwa iingenelo zokuthintela umhlwa, iSea World inezinye iingenelo. Lo ngomnye umzekelo apho abathengi bakwakholelwa ukuba ezi zibonelelo zifanelekile naziphi na iindleko ezongezelelweyo. "
