Question:

What is the difference between compressed natural gas and liquefied natural gas?

Now the new trucks have begun to use natural gas as fuel, there are 2 options, compression and liquefaction, do not know which one is more appropriate

Answer:

The disadvantage is that the process is more complex, the general can only buy a new, even if it is not too much to spend 5~10 million can be changed, the modified technology is not too close
LNG liquefied natural gas 1 volume into the standard volume of natural gas of 600, continued to increase the ability to travel, and trucks also have enough space to store gas and equipment, can continue to travel 600km or even farther
Trucks generally use liquefied natural gasCNG compressed natural gas, 1 volume into 200 standard volume of natural gas, simple process, cheap refit costs (thousands of dollars to fix), the disadvantage is lack of power, lack of capacity for continued driving. The small taxi use, may be 2 ~3 gas a day.
