What is a common application for CNG beyond vehicle fuel?

CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) is commonly used for applications beyond vehicle fuel, with heating being one of the primary uses. CNG is an efficient and cleaner burning fuel compared to traditional fuels such as oil and coal, making it ideal for residential and commercial heating systems. It is used for heating spaces, water heating, and even in cooking appliances. The ability to provide a consistent and controllable heat source contributes to its popularity in heating applications.

In contrast, the other options, while relevant to various industries, do not typically utilize CNG as a common application. Furniture construction generally involves materials like wood, metal, and composites but does not commonly leverage CNG. Similarly, metal plating and textile production rely on different chemical processes and raw materials that are not based on CNG. Therefore, heating is the most appropriate and widely recognized application for CNG beyond its use in vehicles.
