LPG – The Established Fuel
Alternative.
What
is LPG?
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a mixture of
propane and butane. LPG is regarded as one of the cleanest fuels on the
market because its simple chemical composition means it is a very clean burning
fuel.
This is important for the quality of the air you breathe.
Particulates accumulate in your lungs and an LPG engine was shown in recent
European tests to emit substantially fewer particulates than a diesel one.
Furthermore, the emission of nitrogen oxide – which can damage your lungs and
health – was demonstrated to be 20 times less in a LPG vehicle than in a
diesel.
Below are details of just how much cleaner LPG is
compared to Petrol and Diesel run vehicles.
- Compared to petrol
- 75% less carbon monoxide
- 85% less hydrocarbons
- 40% less oxides of nitrogen
- 87% less ozone
Compared to diesel
- 90% less particulates, hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide
- 50% less oxides of nitrogen
