2012 Honda Civic GX with the blue diamond CNG sticker and the new natural gas badging. The GX was originally introduced with a 1.6 liter inline-four engine (I4). The 2001 model makeover carried a 1.7 liter engine. Beginning in model-year 2006, the 1.8 liter inline four-cylinder engine was introduced to the civic lineup.
Compressed natural gas (CNG) is a fuel gas mainly composed of methane (CH 4), compressed to less than 1% of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure.It is stored and distributed in hard containers at a pressure of 20–25 megapascals (2,900–3,600 psi; 200–250 bar), usually in cylindrical or spherical shapes.
The first phase of the IKCO EF Engines project, the EF7 Dual-Fuel, had an estimated cost of US$80,000,000 [4] and aimed to supply 800,000 powertrains by 2010. [5] Most EF engines share a set of common parts. The EF4 and EF7 are bi-fuel engines that primarily use compressed natural gas but can also operate on gasoline. The EFD is a single-fuel ...
Methane, the main component of natural gas, has an autoignition temperature of 580 °C, [48] whereas gasoline and diesel autoignite at approximately 250 °C and 210 °C respectively. With a compressed natural gas (CNG) engine, the mixing of the fuel and the air is more effective since gases typically mix well in a short period of time.

Natural gas was not widely used before the development of long distance pipelines in the early 20th century. Before that, most use was near to the source of the well, and the predominant gas for fuel and lighting during the industrial revolution was manufactured coal gas. [24] The history of natural gas in the United States begins with ...
America's energy renaissance has led to a near doubling of proved natural gas reserves since 2000, and natural gas cemented itself as the preferred cheap energy source domestically. Accordingly ...
