What does CNG mean in TRANSPORTATION

CNG has been compressed to less than 1% of the volume of regular natural gas at standard atmospheric conditions, allowing it to be stored in a portable fuel tank. This makes it an ideal transportation fuel since it can be safely transported in a smaller space than regular natural gas.

CNG can be used for a variety of applications including powering light-duty vehicles like cars, buses and trucks; heating, cooling and cooking in homes; fueling large-scale industrial processes; powering remote sites such as oil rigs; and generating electricity.

Yes. Compared with gasoline or diesel fuels, burning CNG produces fewer emissions such as carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, making it an attractive option for those interested in reducing their carbon footprint. Additionally, CNG has the potential to help reduce dependency on fossil fuels due to its renewable nature.

Many governments around the world are promoting the use of CNG as a transportation fuel due to its environmental benefits and cost savings when compared with gasoline and diesel fuels. Additionally, many private companies are beginning to switch from petroleum-based fuels to cleaner burning alternatives such as compressed natural gas.

When using any type of fuel you should always follow safe storage practices including keeping the area clean of debris that could lead to fire hazards or explosions; storing only approved portable tanks in approved locations; refilling only when necessary; properly ventilating areas where gases may accumulate; using flashlights instead of matches or lighters for inspection; avoiding loose clothing near fuel sources; having fire extinguishers accessible in case of emergency; and so on.
