Safety of human life is very important.

Leakage of gas can be unsafe as it raises the danger of

building fire or a blast. Mostly causalities happen due to natural Gas leakage and presence of

Carbon monoxide (CO) content in room that causes suffocation. Companies, hotels, hospitals, bear

high responsibility for the health and safety purpose. When we deeply inhale room air which is

about 21% of Oxygen present on earth. The internal organs that utilization the most Oxygen are

our Brain and heart. In natural gas is for the most part is methane. it functions as a toxic substance.

It decrees the amount of Oxygen in our body when we breathe. If it leaks surrounding into the air.

It consume the amount of oxygen in room space. Greater the amount of gas in the air less the

amount of Oxygen in the air because these two things can’t be in the similar place in the same

time. Natural gas is colorless but smell of rotten eggs is add by the gas companies. So people can

smell the leak in their house. As compare to this Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless,

tasteless, non-irritating, and poisonous gas. Also natural gas contain carbon too. Carbon monoxide

is produce during inadequate burning when there is lacking ignition air and when the temperature

drops under burning temperature CO is marginally lighter than air and effectively travels through

little splits all through a whole house. Both of these gases can be perilous however CO is

considered to be more dangerous in light of the fact that it can cause hurt in lower air

concentrations. Natural gas exposures can happen if there is a leak in a gas line or a pilot light is

out.
