Legal CO2 emitting requirements and an increasing worldwide need for energy demand a diversification on the fuel market, especially in terms of automobile applications. When it comes to reaching the emission targets, natural and bio gases (CNG, Compressed Natural Gas, respectively BNG, Bio Natural Gas) as well as synthetic methane based fuels (SNG, Synthetic Natural Gas) can play an important role in passenger and freight transportation. The advantages compared to conventional fossil fuels are well known: CO2 savings of approximately 20% compared to gasoline can be realized just by the favorable H-to-C-ratio of methane.
