Biomethane as an Environment-Friendly Fuel for Municipal Transport
Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2012, Vol 24, Issue 3
Abstract
An idea to replace the conventional engine fuel with biomethane has been described. The effects of such a swap have been analysed for municipal transport buses in Warsaw. The replacement has been shown to result in a significant reduction of toxic exhaust emissions and in economic savings. The analysis results have been presented in the form of tables and graphs.
