That doesn't look anything like LPG... LPG stands for Liquidified Petroleum Gas. Just because you use water in the evaporated gasoline bottle does not make it Liquified! LPG is a mixture of propane, n-butane, and isobutane. Gasoline is napthenes, olefins, and parafins. Those aren't the same things.
What this guy has built is a means to cause Gasoline to vaporize. He pumps air into a container of gasoline. Then container of gasloine is vented to a container of water which acts as a vapororised gasoline storage tank. Then the vaporised gasoline is pushed out another tube to a plumping fitting which is acting as a burner.
When you put more air in the gasoline plastic water bottle and let the excess air escape into the plastic water bottle, the gasoline will evaporate into the air in the gasoline container. Gasoline does that. Just ask anyone who pours gaoline on a burn pile to light it - very shortly afterward, there is evaporated gasoline all around - add an ignition source and the vapor ignites.
It's not LPG.
It's not free - unless you steal the gasoline from somebody. And, it is also not free because you have to use electricity to run the junk compressor.
It is not producing anything - it is only vaporising gasoline.
IT IS REALLY DANGEROUS. While PET is a plastic that is somewhat tolerant to fuel exposure, vinyl tubing is generally not considered a safe choice for fuels. Sure it won't disolve immediately, but over time, the vinyl tubing will harden and more easily crack or leak. Then there is the Hot Melt Glue - this stuff should not be exposed to gasoline - ever - no it doesn't spontaineously combust, but the hydrocarbons of the gasoline will vigorously attack the thermo plastic hot melt glue and that seal on the cheap plastic water bottle holding the gasoline will leak.
AND IT IS REALLY DANGEROUS!!! Why are you using cheap plastic water bottles as containers for gasoline? You have one for the fuel that was poured into the second one that is the vapor making tank and then the third is the storage tank. I guess if one assumes that the fuel is stolen (the poster says it is free, so it must be stolen), that explains the first bottle.
They make stoves that use gasoline and white gas which have at least been more thought out than this. There are even stoves that will burn diesel, kerosene, alchohol, white gas, automobile gasoline, and a few other things.
