What is CNG
• CNG is made by compressing natural gas (which is mainly
composed of methane, CH4),to less than 1 percent of the
volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure. It is
stored and distributed in hard containers at a pressure of 20-25
Mpa (2,900-3,600 psi), usually in cylinder or spherical shapes

Preparation
• It is made by compressing the natural gas (composed of
methane) to less then 1%of the volume at stand
atmospheric pressure.
• It is stored in hard cylinder container at a pressure of 200-
280 bars.

Maintenance
• Proper training is required for all maintenance personnel
working on CNG vehicles. The oil in a CNG vehicle does not
need to be changed as frequently because CNG burns
more cleanly than gasoline , producing less deposits in the
oil.
