Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

How to convert $/PJ to $/litre

Mon Jan 21, 2008 8:24 am

Is there any method to convert $/PJ to $/Litre of propane or butane?

Sure, just multiply by the energy content in PJ/L. Per US DoE,
Propane is 50.235 MJ/kg, 25.48 MJ/L.
Butane is 49.210 MJ/kg, 28.769 MJ/L.
(both values HHV)

Most liquid hydrocarbons are "about the same" on a weight basis (slightly higher if they have higher hydrogen content), but vary on a volumetric basis according to density.
