6、s, however, cars that run on alternate fuel sources will become increasingly important. A natural-gas vehicle, or NGV, is the perfect example of such a car - its fuel-efficient, environmentally friendly and offers a relatively low cost of ownership. Natural gas basics The word gas is a confusing ter

7、m because it is used to describe many different substances that are similar but not exactly the same. For example, the gas you put in your car is gasoline, one component of crude oil, or petroleum. Petroleum is a dark, sticky liquid mixture of compounds formed underground by the decay of ancient mar

8、ine animals. Natural gas also comes from the decay of ancient organisms, but it naturally takes a gaseous form instead of a liquid form. Natural gas commonly occurs in association with crude oil. It is derived from both land plants and aquatic (水生的) organic matter and forms above or below oil deposi

9、ts. It is often dissolved in crude oil at the high pressures existing in a reservoir. There are also reservoirs of natural gas, known as non-associated gas, that contain only gas and no oil. Natural gas consists primarily of methane (沼气) and other hydrocarbon gases. Hydrocarbons are organic compound

10、s composed only of the elements carbon and hydrogen. The hydrocarbons in natural gas are called saturated hydrocarbons (饱和烃) because they contain hydrogen and carbon bound together by single bonds. Like gasoline, natural gas is combustible (易燃的) ,which means it can be used in a combustion engine lik

11、e gasoline. But cars that could burn natural gas didnt appear on the scene until the 1930s.BFrom field to ford/B We extract natural gas trapped in underground reservoirs by drilling wells into the earth. A modem well, equipped with diamond-studded drill bits, can drill to depths approaching 25,000 f

12、eet. Throughout the 19th century, the use of natural gas remained localized because there was no way to transport large quantities of gas over long distances. In 1890, the invention of a leakproof pipeline coupling made it possible to transport gas miles from the source. Improvements in pipeline tec

13、hnology continued over the next two decades until long-distance gas transmission became practical. From 1927 to 1931, laborers constructed more than 10 major natural gas transmission systems in the United States, making natural gas a viable energy source for many applications. The oil shortages of t

14、he late 1960s and early 1970s brought renewed interest in natural gas as a fuel source, especially for automobiles. Today, owners of natural-gas vehicles can fill up their cars at one of 1,300 fueling stations located in the United States. Honda also offers a personal natural gas pump to people who

15、purchase its natural-gas-powered Civic. The pump uses a homes existing natural gas lines and can be installed for500 to 1,500. BNatural-gas vehicle design/B Natural-gas vehicles use the same basic principles as gasoline-powered vehicles. In other words, the fuel ( natural gas in this case) is mixed

16、with air in the cylinder of a four-stroke engine and then ignited by a spark plug to move a piston (活塞) up and down. Although there are some differences between natural gas and gasoline in terms of flammability and ignition temperatures, NGVs themselves operate on the same fundamental concepts as ga

17、soline-powered vehicles. Still, some modifications are required to make an NGV work efficiently. These changes are primarily in the fuel storage tank, the engine and the chassis (底盘). BAdvantages/B The biggest advantage of NGVs is that they reduce environmentally harmful emissions. Natural-gas vehic

18、les can achieve up to a 93 percent reduction in carbon monoxide emissions, 33 percent reduction in emissions of various oxides of nitrogen and a 50 percent reduction in reactive hydrocarbons when compared to gasoline vehicles. NGVs also rate higher in particulate matter 10 (PM10) emissions. PM10 par

19、ticles transport and deposit toxic materials through the air. NGVs that operate in diesel applications can reduce PM10 emissions by a factor of 10. Natural-gas vehicles also offer these benefits: NGVs are safer. The fuel storage tanks on an NGV are thicker and stronger than gasoline or diesel tanks.
