			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When consumers hear the phrase natural gas, they may experience some confusion when comparing that power source with the gasoline they put into their vehicles on a regular basis. Like gasoline and diesel &#8211; which are both refined from crude oil or petroleum, natural gas is also a fossil fuel, in that it is formed from the decay of long-dead organisms. Unlike gasoline or diesel, however, natural gas naturally takes a gaseous instead of liquid form. In nature, natural gas can be found both in combination with petroleum or in mined pockets that contain only gas.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Natural gas is a catchall name that actually encompasses many types of gases that are all single bond combinations of carbon and hydrogen. Some forms of natural gas include methane, butane, and propane. Because natural gas is a combustion fuel, just like gasoline or diesel, natural gas cars work very similarly. The difference in impact between traditionally fueled vehicles and natural gas cars is that the mining and refining process for natural gas is much safer and cleaner and is far less detrimental to the environment.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>There are two main difference between a traditional fuel engine and a natural gas engine. The first is that a natural gas car requires a higher temperature to ignite the fuel and thus start the engine. The second is that because natural gas is in gaseous form instead of liquid, a smaller fuel tank is required in these types of vehicles. With just a few engine modifications, however, automobile manufactures can produce natural gas cars as alternatives to traditional vehicles.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>2009 is the fifth straight year that the Honda Civic GX has been named the &#8220;greenest vehicle of the year&#8221; by the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE).  Powered by natural gas, Honda claims the Civic GX has the cleanest internal combustion engine in the automotive marketplace.</p>
<p>For sale to consumers in California, New York, and Utah only, the Civic GX gets the equivalent of 36 mpg in government mileage tests. Natural gas comes out of the ground as, well, a gas.  Sometimes natural gas is found along with liquid petroleum, while other times it&#8217;s in deposits by itself.  After it&#8217;s refined, natural gas is mainly methane.  It&#8217;s possible to produce methane gas from decaying organic matter or coal, but both cost more than conventional natural gas. To be stored in an amount needed to produce useful cruising range, natural gas must be compressed to about 3600 pounds per square inch.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s about 120 times the pressure in your tires.  It&#8217;s also why it&#8217;s commonly referred to as CNG for &#8220;compressed natural gas. &#8220;Natural gas has several major benefits as a fuel for Americans.  First, natural gas is accepted as the cleanest-burning fossil fuel: Honda says the Civic GX burns some 90 percent cleaner than an equivalent gasoline-fueled vehicle.  Also, natural gas produces 75 percent fewer NOx pollutants (oxides of nitrogen) compared to a gasoline engine.</p>
<p>Next, North America has abundant reserves of natural gas: If more cars burned natural gas we would reduce our dependence on foreign oil.  Those driving the Civic GX will notice barely a difference from a regular Civic.  Until, that is, the vehicle needs refueling. The Civic GX is based on the Civic LX Sedan.  The main difference: Instead of a gas tank, the GX has cylinders to store pressurized natural gas.  Since the Civic GX is given an exemption from carpool lane restrictions in some areas, new &#8220;Natural Gas Vehicle&#8221; decals on the rear doors will inform authorities that you&#8217;re not breaking the law.  Other exterior changes include a new front bumper cover and a revised grille.  Inside, new cloth seat materials and patterns are available, and a new, three-spoke steering wheel is standard. The Civic GX is fitted with a 113-horsepower 1. 8-liter four-cylinder engine.</p>
<p>Despite its higher 12. 5:1 compression ratio, this is considerably off the 140 horsepower produced by the gasoline-fueled 1. 8-liter in the Civic LX. The engine comes only with a five-speed automatic transmission.  On the government&#8217;s highway driving cycle, the Civic GX gets the equivalent of a gasoline-powered car that earns a 36 miles per gallon rating.  The Civic GX&#8217;s cylinders can&#8217;t hold the same energy as a gasoline tank, so its cruising range is less than 250 miles, almost 100 less than a gasoline-fueled Civic.  Its short range and limited number of public refueling stations means the Civic GX is poorly suited for road trips.</p>
<p>And don&#8217;t expect the roadside assistance service to bring a load of natural gas. Honda claims the Civic GX is the only vehicle certified by the U. S.  Environmental Protection Agency to meet both Federal Tier 2 Bin 2 and Inherently Low Emission Vehicle (ILEV) zero evaporative emission certification standards. Unlike some other alternative fuels, much of the infrastructure (pipelines and such) for natural gas vehicle-fueling stations already exists.  Cylinders to store the compressed natural gas are the main thing fueling stations would need to add.  At one of the 1,500 or so public natural gas refueling stations in the U. S. , it takes a tad longer to fully refill the GX&#8217;s cylinders than it does to fuel a conventional gasoline car&#8217;s tank.</p>
<p>The government lists natural gas refueling stations at www. afdc. energy. gov. Since natural gas is delivered by pipeline to more than half of American houses, it&#8217;s not difficult to refuel a natural-gas-powered vehicle at your house.  Civic GX owners can refuel from their home natural gas system with the addition of Phill, a home-refueling appliance produced by FuelMaker Corporation.  This system takes overnight to fully refill the Civic GX&#8217;s tank. The Civic GX is the only natural-gas-fueled passenger vehicle available to retail customers in the United States.  It&#8217;s assembled in East Liberty, Ohio.  The Honda Civic GX is also a rolling tax deduction.  Buying a Civic GX may earn you a $4,000 tax credit and installing a home refueling unit may be worth another $1,000 federal tax credit.  In several states the Civic GX can legally use the high-occupant vehicle lane, while some cities offer free metered parking.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people don&#8217;t really think at lot about the water heaters down in the basement until something goes wrong, when their current system finally hits the end of the line.  When that heater finally wears out its welcome, then suddenly its time to do some research and some shopping.  &#13;<br />
Replacement options include more of the same, or looking into something that would be considered an upgrade, in this case, a tankless hot water system.  Providing an adequate supply of hot water for your family will make everyone happy, and prevent those arguments about who used all of the hot water.  &#13;<br />
Natural gas powers many homes in the United States today.  Not surprisingly, manufacturers of hot water heaters have designed them with natural gas inputs for the homeowner.  With energy supplies tightening up, exploration for new natural gas reserves will continue as Americans look for oil alternatives.  &#13;<br />
Companies are aware and intent on providing consumers with clean burning natural gas rather than oil and coal.  Natural gas will continue to be the fuel of choice for both home heating and major appliances such as water heaters.  Overall, natural gas is also used in nearly half of all United States households.  More utility companies continue to use this as the fuel to heat the water needed by their paying customers. &#13;<br />
Natural gas is much friendlier to the environment, especially when you consider that most homes and the electric powered hot water heaters within are often powered by other fuel sources.  Many power plants are still fired by coal, which of course brings into play the emission of pollutants and particles that go on up into the atmosphere.  Pulling natural gas out of the ground does not involve the same burning process as a coal-fired electrical plant, thus it is a much more green way to provide needed fuel.  &#13;<br />
Natural gas thus is a cleaner, cheaper way to provide home energy.  Today, tankless hot water heaters also called a demand or instantaneous water heaters can use either natural gas or electricity.  Significant savings can thus be had, as there is not a storage tank that must constantly be heated up over and over.  On the other hand, storage tank water heaters must deal with standby heat losses due to their storage tanks.  &#13;<br />
Therefore, the best overall setups use natural gas fuel combined with tankless heater technology.  This gives the homeowner a constant, never ending flow of hot water, yet at the same time saves money with the latest technological advances.  When natural gas fuel is not available, as is the case in many rural areas, a good alternative is propane, which many people do use in these areas.  &#13;<br />
Propane is another clean burning fuel, and manufactures have addressed the need by creating tankless water heaters that run off of either propane or natural gas.  </p>
