JAKARTA, JAMBIEKSPRES.CO.ID-It appears that the switch from Pertalite fuel to CNG is not far off.
Before it can actually be marketed to the public, we need to know the pros and cons or pros and cons of methane.
This article will explain the advantages and disadvantages of CNG.
As is known, CNG or Compressed Natural Gas is expected to be able to replace fuel for one million Pertalie.
It is cheaper in price at IDR 3,000 per litre, but the quality is on par with Pertamax Turbo.
Compiled from various sources, here are the benefits of CNG:
CNG has a cleaner content than petrol and diesel, which can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 15-27% compared to vehicle gases
· Lower prices thanks to savings of 55% on production costs. Because CNG comes from a gas that does not require a distillation process.
Upcoming methane weaknesses:
· Although the selling price is relatively low, CNG requires a larger tank than petrol and diesel. Compressed natural gas is 3.5 times denser than gasoline.
· Cleanliness cannot be guaranteed, because CNG has the potential to produce greenhouse gases faster than diesel or petrol vehicles.
This incident can be seen through research on CNG fuel garbage trucks, which actually produce a lot of glass gas. This takes into account the weight of the vehicle and the running time of the engine.
· Finally, CNG prices are not always stable because they are subject to wild fluctuations. For example, in 2014 and 2022 India uses a lot of methane due to its low price. Automatically the demand increases, so the prices go up
Amid soaring conventional fuel prices, the government has come up with a new solution. That is to say, change BBM to CNG or Gas Fuel (BBG), which is currently a hot topic of conversation.
