A natural gas contains 80.0 wt% CH4 and the balance C2H6. Five hundred cubic meters per hour of this gas at 40.0°C and 1.30 bar is to be burned with 25.0% excess air. The air flowmeter is calibrated to read the volumetric flow rate at standard temperature and pressure. What should the meter read (in SCMH — standard cubic meters per hour) when the flow rate is set to the desired value?

How do you convert 664.71 MSCFH (million standard cubic feet per hour) of natural gas to MBtu/hr? I am looking for the firing rate of a burner. I know you have to use enthalpy tables for temperatures or something of the composition. (the composition is mainly CH4 Methane)
