Because it is ecological, economical and absolutely safe! Italy has the largest natural gas vehicle fleet in Europe and the second in the world, after Argentina: over 600,000 vehicles in circulation and a network of methane pipelines that run along the entire peninsula. The supply is guaranteed by more than 900 distributors in Italy (many others are under construction), as well as those of transport companies, such as ATM, which make them available to the public. Here are three good reasons to choose or adapt a methane car: CLEAN AIR Methane is the simplest hydrocarbon, it is found in a gaseous state and its chemical-physical properties make it a clean and easy-to-use fuel. Therefore methane does not pollute and does not affect natural ecosystems. Its use in vehicles, thanks also to the most recent technologies, allows to reduce a wide range of emissions, such as those already regulated (CO, NOx, HC, PM) and others. It does not contain lead, sulfur and aromatic hydrocarbons and its emissions of fine dust (PM) are practically nil. Even with regard to the greenhouse effect, the impact of methane-powered vehicles is less than that of other fuels. Compared to gasoline, the ozone-forming potential of methane-powered vehicles is 96% lower. SAVINGS La convenienza economica per chi acquista un'automobile a metano è un altro aspetto importante. A parità di chilometri percorsi, attualmente l'utilizzo del metano permette di risparmiare fino al 65% rispetto alla benzina, fino al 50% nei confronti del Gasolio, fino al 45% nei confronti del Gpl, (fonte Ferdermetano). SICUREZZA Per fare il pieno di metano occorrono 3-5 minuti al distributore, è possibile parcheggiare ovunque in quanto il metano ha una densità inferiore a quella dell'aria e il rischio di infiammalbilità è inferiore rispetto a quello degli altri carburanti. Nel caso di incidenti stradali, assume particolare importanza l'elevatissima resistenza meccanica e la resistenza al fuoco dei serbatoi che sono realizzati in acciaio di grande spessore e privi di saldature. In caso di incendio, per evitare l'innalzamento della pressione nel serbatoio oltre i limiti di sicurezza, è prevista una valvola automatica che consente il deflusso controllato del gas, con lo stesso principio usato per le pentole a pressione domestiche. Per la sua struttura molecolare, il metano presenta un'alta resistenza alla detonazione (superiore a 120 ottani) che permette di utilizzare elevati rapporti di compressione, oltre 12 a 1, senza bisogno di additivi chimici come per le benzine, con il risultato di aumentare il rendimento energetico con una notevole riduzione dei consumi. The high resistance to oxidation makes methane the fuel par excellence in internal combustion engines, obtaining high combustion stability, absence of carbon deposits and lower noise emission, another important problem for those who live in the city.
