Question

What are some advantages, and disadvantages of gasoline[liek the type you put in your car]?

Answer 1

The advantage of gasoline is that it is a natural product of the petroleum distillation process that burns somewhat clean(no thick smoke like diesel fuel) and that it evaporates slowly (slower than naphtha the next natural product above gasoline which would be to expensive) and most importantly it is a liquid thus, making it easily transportable/handled unlike pressurized gaseous fuels.

The disadvantage of gasoline is that is made from a type of petroleum not common in the US (light sweet crude) and does not burn clean enough even with current high tech and costly fuel systems. Unlike an engine that runs on gaseous fuels such as CNG(compressed natural gas) or LP (liquid propane) and others you can breath the exhaust with exception of the oxygen depletion as determined by EPA air quality standards. NO gasoline engine regardless of any add on high tech systems can come near to making this claim(unless the gasoline is converted into a true gas prior to combustion).

Gasoline is truly a compromise between convenience and functionality.
