Over the past couple of decades, new drilling methods like hydraulic fracturing or “fracking” have unlocked huge new supplies of natural gas across the U.S. and around the world. This has helped lower prices and allowed natural gas to become the number one source of electricity generation in...
Natural gas is one of the big three fossil fuels that the world runs on. In recent decades, there has been more of an effort to move away from coal and gas when it comes to providing heat and power as they produce high levels of pollution. The reserves for coal and natural gas are ...

” It consists of a well that is drilled miles deep that contains chemicals‚ additives‚ and sand‚ but mostly just large amounts of plain water. Once the rock is cracked from the pressure of the fluids‚ thenaturalgascomes back up the well‚ with millions of gallons of ...
A special advantage of natural gas is that it bums very cleanly. When natural gas burns, it produces mostly carbon dioxide and water vapor. Oil's main advantage is that it burns efficiently — meaning that little is wasted in the change to energy. Also, the refining (提炼) process that ...

Natural Gas Cars: The Pros There are two types of CNG vehicles —Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG)andCompressed Natural Gas (CNG).Both are fuel-efficient vehicles that burn low-emissions fuel that’s better for the environment than petroleum-based fuels. They aren’t expensive to build and don’t...
There are many types of alternative marine fuels with different properties, such as liquefied petroleum gas, liquefied natural gas, methanol, ethanol, and biofuels. Each alternative fuel has its own characteristics, which leads to some ...
Natural Gas (CNG/LNG) - cleaner burning than gasoline or diesel, but lacks infrastructure. Hydrogen Fuel Cell - Electric cars like the Toyota Mirai run on hydrogen thanks to fuel cell technology.
