Which fuels are less polluting?
CNG(compressed natural gas) bio gas
What are the advantages of using cng and lpg as fuels?
C.N.G : It is cheaper than the other fuels. It is a cleaner fuel.LPG : It is easily available in market.
Do cars have fossil fuels?
If it runs on gasoline, diesel or CNG, yes.
What is the penalty for installing non - certified cng conversion kits?
Very little enforcement and regulation. EPA is a joke with confusing standards. The promote alternative fuels, but inhibit CNG conversions.
How does a cng engine differ from a gasoline engine?
One runs on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and one runs on gasoline. With the right modifications, a single engine can run on both fuels.
What is one thing you can do to decrease your green house gas production?
we can use cleaner fuels like CNG and LPG.
In bi-fuel system cng when you use cng for a few time then run the engine by gasoline engine works in rich mode forever how you can solve this problem you think lambda is confused by cng?
Start by asking yourself the difference at what temps the flame fronts run at in the combustion chamber between both fuels. You may have to run dual sensors for O2 for both fuels.. Just a thought. -Ric
Why cng is more preferred over diesel?
It may be due to the pollution level ie.,the poisonous substance emitted from diesel is more compared to CNG. The cost of CNG is less when compared to diesel.
Why do CNG vehicles recquire lower maintanence?
CNG vehicles does not require much work because it was built to be a strong vehicle. This vehicle went through a lot of study.
Why cng preferred as a fuel diesel and petrol?
Among the challenges of the 21st Century the foremost is the issue of environmental protection. The greenhouse factor is one of the pressing issues which have led to global warming and climatic changes throughout the world. The biggest factor contributing to this increase in climate change is pollution caused by carbon based fuel consuming automobiles. These fuels are believed to emit unhealthy levels of carbon into the atmosphere which trap ultraviolet radiation from escaping the atmosphere of the earth thus causing a rapid increase in the temperature of the Earth. One way of reducing this increase is by investing in alternative fuels like compressed natural gas (CNG). CNG, short for compressed natural gas, has become a very popular alternative to conventional automotive fuels like gasoline and petroleum. Because it is based primarily on methane, it can be combusted without releasing too much carbon into the atmosphere. This makes CNG a much more environmentally friendly fuel alternative to petroleum and gasoline. It has found its way in several countries and major cities of the world and has helped to reduce pollution levels in those countries. In addition to being less polluting, CNG is also much safer for environment and human health compared with other carbon-based fuels. CNG has to compete against crude oil based fuels and electric power based power generating systems. The most important criteria here is carbon emissions in which CNG cars take the lead because they produce the least carbon emissions into the atmosphere compared with gasoline and electricity powered cars. In one study it has been estimated that CNG vehicles produce around 20% less carbon monoxide than gasoline powered vehicles and 25% fewer greenhouse gases. The electric cars are coal powered and so they also lead to the release of a substantial number of carbon pollutants into the atmosphere. CNG is also safer as compared to other fuels, although some special precautions need to be taken here. One of the best things about CNG is that despite being a fuel, it has a very narrow flammable range. This means that it is much safer than gasoline which can catch fire much more easily than CNG. CNG stations are also much safer than petrol stations. Another useful property of CNG is that it is a gas as compared to gasoline; in fact, it's lighter than air. So in case there is a gas leak the gas will diffuse rapidly into the atmosphere leaving less room for a discharge or an explosion to take place. These factors make CNG not only environmentally friendly as compared to traditional fuels but also safer for human and environmental health. It is a useful alternative fuel because it has also created employment for a lot of people in the CNG industry and has reduced the problems faced by countries because of the high oil import bills. The network of CNG stations around the world is increasing rapidly which is testament to the widely growing popularity of CNG as an environmentally friendly fuel alternative.
Why cng is more efficient than petrol?
It is not. Gasoline or diesel fuel has more available energy than cng per weight, and produces more kw/hp than cng. That's why we still use gas. Engines running on cng always produce less power, but run cleaner, and might have less of an environmental impact or carbon footprint than the production of gasoline.
What do you know about fuel?
Fuels are the substances that burn to produce heat and light energy. Some commonly used fuels are wood, coal, petrol, diesel, kerosene, LPG & CNG. Fuels are used for cooking in automobiles and to generate electricity.On the basis of their physical state, fuels have been divided into three categories:Solid fuelsLiquid fuelsGaseous fuels
