| Running
your vehicles on LPG you can
make huge financial savings |
|
| Using
Autogas (LPG as a vehicle
fuel) you can cut your fuel
bills by around 50%, as Autogas
retails at HALF the price
of petrol and diesel. What's
more, it's also cleaner than
petrol and diesel in terms
of emissions during comubustion. |

Autogas is the
common name for liquified petroleum
gas when it is used as a fuel in
internal combustion engines in vehicles.
The same equipment is also used
for similar engines in stationary
applications such as generators.
Autogas is widely used as a "green"
fuel as it decreases exhaust emissions
(less 20 % CO2). It has an octane
rating that is |
|
 |
|
between 90 and 110 and an energy
content that is between 25.5 megajoules
per litre (for pure propane) and
28.7 megajoules per litre (for pure
butane). |

Advantages
of using autogas
|
|
-
less
cylinder wear
-
longer
service life of lube
oil and spark plugs
-
50%
lower price
-
lower
cost of maintenasnce
-
lower
emission of toxic components
-
without
solid uncombusted particles;
no sulfur or lead in
combustion product

| More
advantages... |
|
-
Noise
from Autogas-powered
engines is quieter than
from diesel engines,
keeping sound pollution
to a minimum
-
Should
a fuel spill occur,
LPG will evaporate quickly
- so there is no risk
of ground or water contamination.
The same cannot be said
about petrol and diesel
-
LPG
can be found naturally,
as a by-product of the
gas extraction process

According to
research in Europe, LPG vehicles
emit 20% LESS carbon dioxide than
their petrol counterparts. Carbon
dioxide, nitric oxides and particulates
are key contributors to problems
like poor air quality and global
warming.
The same investigation discovered
that LPG is much cleaner than diesel
when it comes to Nitric Oxides -
it would, in fact, take around 20
LPG cars to produce as much NOx
as is pumped out by just one diesel-powered
car. |

A
vehicle powered by LPG produces
less harmful emissions than those
using more traditional fuels - making
it the cleaner, greener option.
Most LPG vehicles are bi-fuel however,
so should you really require it,
you can still drive on petrol or
diesel at the flick of a switch.
Driving an LPG vehicle is safe,
easy and, best of all, much cheaper
than petrol.
Implementing of equipment is |
|
 |
|
Fuel
of the future
|
|
| |
With
the higher ecological
requirements and more
severe norms on the
concentration of harmful
gasses in the atmosphere,
autogas should become
one of the primary
combustibles in the
car industry
|
|
|
|
|
practically engine adaptation on
dosage of gasoline. This perform
is possible on carburetor and injection
engines of car, scooter, boats and
aggregates.
In some countries governments support
that implementation because they
see that as an investment in ecology
and economy of a country. |

Autogas
world wide... |
|
|
|
Auto
gas is very usable in Italy,
Bulgaria, Holland, Great Britain,
Russia, Ukraine, |
|
and India.
Recently, Japan records largest
growth of vehicles on gas
propulsion.
In Japan all taxi vehicles
must |
|
|
have gas propulsion. On second
place is Italy (1.200.000
vehicles), than Holland (800.000),
South Korea (790.000), Australia
(530.000 vehicles). |
|
|
|
| |
In
public transport in Vienna vehicles
on gas propulsion is present for
30 years. Main reasons are economy
and environment. Today Vienna has
550 buses on gas propulsion.
Some European countries records
intensive growth of gas propulsion
vehicles. For example in Valladolid
(Span), 110 buses are transforming
|
|
|
in gas engine propulsion after which
will project expand on 15 largest
cities of Spain.
Governments in big cities of Eastern
Europe, like Moscow, Kiev, Budapest,
and Prague, treat auto gas as an
ecological fuel.
Some car manufacturers in Taiwan
implement gas engine propulsion
in serial production. Environmental
resolution of California (USA) recommend
electrical and gas engine propulsion. |
