CNG is compressed natural gas. CNG consists primarily of methane but also contains ethane, propane and heavier hydrocarbons. Natural gas is very important fossil fuel because it is easy to transport through pipes. It can be used as fuel in homes and factories. It is also used as a starting material for the manufacture of a number of chemicals and fertilizers. It is advantageous to use CNG as a fuel because it is less polluting than petrol. It is a clean burning fuel. It produces 45% less hydrocarbons than petrol. The great advantage of CNG is that it can be used directly for burning in homes and factories where it can be supplied through pipes.]
