    INTRODUCTION

    Natural Gas is one of the most valuable natural resources abundantly available in our

    Country. The people of ,aistan have been using the petroleum products as a fuel in their

    Automobiles) thus spending a huge amount of foreign exchange on import of petroleum

    products. -oreover) the Government of India has taen certain concrete steps in order to

    promote the use of natural gas as a fuel substitute in the automobiles. $ue to the efforts

    made by the Government and comparatively low prices of gas) more than //)///

    vehicles have already been converted to operate on Compressed Natural Gas 0CNG1

    fueling system all over India.

    $ue to high cost of petroleum products) lots of vehicles are switching over to CNG. At

    present) there are more than 23/// CNG stations operating in the Country and this

    number is insufficient to meet the rising demand of CNG in the coming years. The total

    pro(ect cost for setting up the CNG filling stations has been estimated at 4s.56.65

    million. It includes land) building) CNG e#uipment and machinery) spares) along with the

    preliminary expenses and woring capital.

    Compressed Natural Gas 0CNG1 is produced when the natural gas is compressed into

    cylinders to be used as a fuel in the automobiles. The compressed natural gas has been

    used as an automobile fuel since 678/) and over the years) the technology has been

    modified and refined. In the recent years) the usage of CNG as an automobile fuel has

    significantly increased because of its low cost and environment friendly nature.

    INDUSTRIAL PROFILE

    C!pre""e# nat$ra% ga"0CNG1 is a fossil fuel substitute for gasoline0petrol1) diesel) or

    propane%;,G. Although its combustion does produce greenhouse gases) it is a more

    environmentally clean alternative to those fuels) and it is much safer than other fuels in

    the event of a spill0natural gas is lighter than air) and disperses #uicly when released1.

    CNG may also be mixed with biogas) produced from landfills or wastewater) which

    to less than 6@ of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure. It is stored

    and distributed in hard containers at a pressure of 2//28Bbar 027//5// psi1) usually

    in cylindrical or spherical shapes.

    CNG is used in traditional gasoline internal combustion engine cars that have been

    converted into bifuel vehicles 0gasoline%CNG1. Natural gas vehicles are increasingly

    used in the Asia,acific region) ;atin America) 'urope) and America due to rising

    gasoline prices. In response to high fuel prices and environmental concerns) CNG is

    starting to be used also in tutusandpicup trucs) transitand school buses) and trains.

    ADANTAGES OF CNG

    plugs is eliminated. CNGpowered vehicles have lower maintenance costs when

    compared with other fuelpowered vehicles. CNG fuel systems are sealed) which

    prevents any spill or evaporation losses. Another practical advantage observed is the

    increased life of lubricating oils) as CNG does not contaminate and dilute the crancase

    oil. CNG mixes easily and evenly in air being a gaseous fuel. CNG is less liely to auto

    ignite on hot surfaces) since it has a high autoignition temperature 038/ C1 and a narrow

    range 03@63@1 of flammability.

    CNG emits significantly less pollutants such as carbon dioxide 0C&21) hydrocarbons

    0U>C1) carbon monoxide 0C&1) nitrogen oxides 0N&x1) sulfur oxides 09&x1 and

    particulate matter0,-1) compared to petrol. For example) an engine running on petrol for

    6// m emits 22)/// grams of C&2) while covering the same distance on CNG emits only

    6)2K3 grams of C&2. CNG is essentially methane) i.e. C>8 with a calorific value of 7//

    %mol. This burns with &xygen to produce 6 mol of C&2 and 2 mol of >2&. Jy

    comparison) petrol can be regarded as essentially Jen"ene or similar) C> with a

    calorific value of about 5)5// %mol and this burns to produce mol of C&2 and 5 mol

    of >2&. From this it can be seen that per mol of C&2 produced) CNG releases over 6.

    times as much energy as that released from petrol 0or for the same amount of energy)

    CNG produces nearly 8/@ less C&21.? The corresponding figures are KB and 23.B grams

    respectively) for nitrogen oxides. Carbon monoxide emissions are reduced even further.

    $ue to lower carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides emissions) switching to CNG can help

    mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. The ability of CNG to reduce greenhouse gas

    DISADANTAGES OF CNG

    The worst thing about vehicular pollution is that it cannot be avoided as the emissions

    are emitted at the nearground level where we breathe. ,ollution from vehicles gets

    reflected in increased mortality and morbidity and is revealed through symptoms lie

    cough) headache) nausea) irritation of eyes) various bronchial problems and visibility. The

    pollution from vehicles are due to discharges lie C&) unburned >C) ,b compounds)

    N&x) soot) suspended particulate matter 09,-1 and aldehydes) among others) mainly

    from the tail pipes.

    *orldwide) there were 62. million natural gas vehicles by 2/6/) up 66.@ over the

    previous year) led by ,aistan with 2.K8 million) Iran 06.73 million1) Argentina 06.7

    million1) Jra"il 06. million1) and India 06.6 million1.=6? with the Asia,acific region

    leading with 3.K million NGEs) followed by ;atin America with almost 8 million

    vehicles.

    CNG cars available in 'urope are bifuel vehicles burning one fuel at a time. Their

    engine is a standard gasoline internal combustion engine 0IC'1. This means that they can

    indifferently run on either gasoline from a gasoline tan or CNG from a separate cylinder

    in the trun. The driver can select what fuel to burn by simply flipping a switch on the

    dashboard.

    9everal manufacturers 0Fiat) &pel 0General -otors1) ,eugeot) Eolswagen) Toyota)

    >onda and others1 sell bifuel cars. In 2//) Fiat introduced the 9iena Tetrafuel in the

    Any existing gasoline vehicle can be converted to a bifuel 0gasoline%CNG1 vehicle.

    Authori"ed shops can do the retrofitting) this involves installing a CNG cylinder in the

    trun) installing the plumbing) installing a CNG in(ection system and the electronics.

    followed by Iran) Argentina) Jra"il. ,aistan also has the highest number of CNG

    stations in the world numbering more than 5//. -a(ority of private vehicles have

    converted to CNG because of cheaper price as compared to petrol. &nly luxury cars and

    official vehicles now run on petrol. 4ecently) new CNG Juses had been introduced by

    C$GOin Oarachi. Almost all car manufacturers in ,aistan 0except >onda1 now produce

    company fitted CNG it versions. 4ecent hies in CNG prices have downplayed the

    ambitious ventures of some of the staeholders in this sector. It is expected that price of

    the CNG and Oits will come down as competition among manufacturers grows.

    GETTING GASSED

    IN a bid to encourage cleaner fuels the government has been promoting CNG and ;,G as

    alternatives to conventional fuel 0petrol and diesel1. And with the public transport in the

    capital and other metros already running on CNG) the problem of limited refuelling

    outlets too seems to be disappearing. All this and the fact that green fuels mean lower

    running costs compared to conventional auto fuels) has a significant number of private

    vehicle owners interested in the CNG option.

    To assess the cost factor) for a car lie the ,remier ,admini) a ilogram of CNG costs

    round about 4s 2/ and offers a range of almost 2/m per g translating into running cost

    of rupee a ilometre. &n the contrary) a litre of petrol) which costs about 4s 53) offers a

    running cost of almost 4s 5 per ilometre.

    'ven if we were to eep the better economy factor aside) CNG still offers a number of

    benefits. The fact that CNG enters the engine in the form of gas instead of spray or mist

    prevents the wash down of the lubricating oil from the top piston ring area eeping the

    engine+s rate of depreciation to a bare minimum. In addition) the octane number of CNG

    being 65/ as compared to BK of that of petrol helps thorough and rapid mixing of gas and

    air in the correct proportion) thereby improving the combustion efficiency.

    Taling about good conversion systems) it+s imperative that the system operate as close

    to petrol as possible. In addition the ris of leaage should be marginal. 9o how much

    does a good conversion system costS It can cost from around 4s 53)/// for a carburetted

    engine to 4s 83)/// for fuel in(ected ones 0installation costs included1. For taxis though

    it+s available on a discount at 4s 52)/// while for threewheelers the price touches 4s

    manufactured in Gu(arat.

    A CNG it includes a conversion it and cylinder wherein the former is placed in the

    engine bay while the latter goes into the boot. The it may be installed at any of the

    authorised CNG worshops) which are increasing by the day. Jut attention must be paid

    to the safety aspect while installation) which taes a simple soap test to ascertain if the

    safety aspect is adhered to. The test involves covering the lines carrying CNG with a soap

    solution) which indicate a lea by forming bubbles at suspect areas.

    The basic components of a conversion it include a pressure regulator to provide the

    system with fuel at a consistent operating pressure in addition to a mixer to ensure correct

    gas and a petrol solenoid to cut off the flow of petrol to the engine during gas operation.

    A filling valve installed in the engine compartment between the storage cylinder and the

    regulator aids easy refilling. The valve is connected to the refuelling system and a manual

    ball device to open%shutoff gas in case of an emergency or for maintenance.

    In the case the car runs out of gas) a change over switch is provided which is an

    electronic control module allowing the user to switch to petrol. The gas from the cylinder

    goes to the engine compartment through a pressure pipe) which is also connected to the

    refuelling system. It is all part of the high pressure piping system that wors overtime to

    avoid leaage. A pressure indicator is also provided to display the level of natural gas

    remaining in the storage cylinder.

    SAFET ASPECTS

    ,ressure vessels) in this case the storage cylinder) are ideally made of high strength steel

    or aluminium over wrapped with a composite material lie fibreglass. There have been

    reports of tan rupture upon refuelling due to the damaged fibre overwrap thans to the

    use of spurious cylinders) especially by unauthorised agents who carry out conversions

    from petrol to CNG. Jut this problem can be addressed through ade#uate monitoring and

    implementation efforts. CNG calls for highpressure onboard storage of the fuel around

    2// atmosphere 05/// to 53//psi1 or more. ,roviding them as aftermaret retrofits on

    autos and cars without proper inspection would lead into disastrous results from the

    safety point of view.

    T1E DIESEL OPTION

    In diesel engines) CNG can be used either as a dual fuel or mono fuel. In dual fuel mode)

    diesel provides combustion initiation for CNG burning. Oits can be retrofitted to existing

    vehicles for them to operate on diesel%CNG mode. >owever) under city driving

    conditions) the substitution of diesel with CNG is #uite low and hence the gains in

    emission reduction are also low.

    Considering the limitations of emission reduction in a dual fuel engine) CNG can be used

    as a mono fuel by converting the diesel engine to a spar ignition engine. This conversion

    warrants ma(or changes in the engine and the operation of the vehicle becomes CNG

    dependent.
