JOINT VENTURE • Gail(India)Ltd. • HPCL • APIIC • KSPL (INCORPORATED ON 22ND AUGUST 2003)
POLLUTION • Sources of Pollution : • – Industries • – Transport Sector • – Domestic Sector • Emissions from Fossil fuels - serious air quality problems • Alternate fuels like CNG, LPG, Propane with clean emission characteristics – increase in usage required • Tighter product specifications in conventional fuels and cleaner emission technologies
COMMON POLLUTANTS • CO2 • NOx • TOXINS • CO • Sox • PARTICULATE MATTER • UNBURNT HYDROCARBONS
ECO FRIENDLY FUELS • NATURAL GAS • CNG • LPG • PROPANE • HYDROGEN
EMISSIONS WITH CNG Vs CONVENTIONAL FUELS Source : Ashok Leyland
COMPARISON OF POLLUTANTS WITH PETROL & CNG Reduction in mass emission with CNG : Pollutant Petrol CNG % Reduction (gm/km) CO 5.19 0.018 99 HC 0.335 0.16 52 NOx 1.19 0.764 36 SOx 0.44 Negligible 100 Particulates 0.05 Negligible 100
ECONOMY WITH CNG • PER KG CNG COST < Petrol and Diesel • Vehicle maintenance cost lower than other vehicles due to better fuel quality of CNG • Clean burning characteristics of CNG increase in spark plug life reduced number of oil changes lesser wear of engine components
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS LPG • • Low emissions of SPM, CO, NOx and unburnt hydrocarbons • Non-toxic and non-poisonous • No heavy metals • Compared to gasoline (ULSP), LPG yields • 50% less CO • 35% less NOx • 40% less hydrocarbons • 10% less CO2 • 50% less ozone forming potential
ADVANTAGES OF LPG AS FUEL • • Cleaner emission characteristics • High Octane Number • Easily transportable & can be stored in stand-alone facilities • Simple dispensing facilities which can be operated with • minimum support infrastructure • Lower fuel cost per kilometer • Longer engine life • Less consumption of engine oil • Driving range equivalent to gasoline
PROPANE AS AUTO FUEL • Similar to LPG, Propane is an environment friendly fuel • Advantages of propane as vehicular fuel include • – Clean emission characteristics (lower levels of CO, • hydrocarbons, NOx, etc. as compared to Gasoline) • – Competitive fuel cost • – Low maintenance cost of vehicle • – High performance • According to National Propane Gas Association, USA propane • engines can last 2 to 3 times longer than gasoline or diesel engines
VISION - B.G.L. • To provide eco-friendly fuels and related services for Automobiles, domestic and commercial users in the state of ANDHRA PRADESH with focus on customer satisfaction and new technologies.
OBJECTIVES • CITY GAS& CNG DISTRIBUTION IN VARIOUS CITIES • TO START WITH VIJAYWADA AND HYDERABAD –SECUNDERABAD • TO PROVIDE LPG FOR AUTOMOBILES TO START WITH TIRUPATHI AND TWIN CITY • TO PROVIDE NATURAL GAS/LPG TO SMALL SCALE INDUSTRIES and COMMERCIAL CENTRES NOT ON ECO-FRIENDLY FUELS • ASSIST IN TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF ECO FRIENDLY APPLIANCES LIKE GAS BASED AIR CONDITIONING ETC
Contd.. • Work out strategy for conversion of diesel buses to CNG jointly with Government • Work out Safe LPG distribution system in twin city jointly with Government. • Examine and implement safe CNG and LPG grid based distribution for city outlets. • Develop plan for other cities of Andhra Pradesh
