Pix could become a headache between Brazil and the US, and the Lula government will go to the White House to explain the system before pressure mounts.
Unlike CNG (methane gas), CNG is made from organic materials taken from landfills, compost, sugarcane, and other resources.
Understand How CNG Works
After the extraction of CNG, the gas is compressed and transferred to a tanker vehicle to be taken to a gas station, industry, or even a pipeline.
In addition to being a cheaper product than others, CNG also offers greater safety in the transfer and refueling processes. This is because it is lighter and can dissipate quickly. Another factor that enhances safety is that for CNG combustion to occur, it needs to be exposed to a temperature of 600ºC, whereas ethanol and gasoline require an average temperature three times lower.
Vehicles that already have the CNG combustion system installed can use CNG without the need for any modifications or adaptations.
