Benefits of Gasoline to human

1. Minimal noise pollution


While noise pollution is not as much as air pollution, it is often attributed to health problems
like sleep loss, stress, hearing loss, high blood pressure and so forth. Road traffic, for instance
causes noise pollution. Gasoline, on the other hand makes minimal noise which is not evident
on electric automobiles.


2. Environmental benefits
Gasoline powdered automobiles emit nitrogen oxide, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide
among other air pollutants. These pollutants in turn cause greenhouse effects like smog that
rise ocean water temperature and surface air. Gasoline powdered engines, on the other hand,
are environmental friendly as compared to other alternative powered automobiles, and since
they have smaller engines, you never have to worry about air pollution.

3. Fair priced
Gasoline powdered automobiles are cheaper in the market. In fact, gasoline powered
automobiles cost less than hybrid cars, and even cheaper than fuel-cell automobiles. Many
people are now willing to buy gasoline powered cars, which are fair priced and potentially low
repair costs in the long run.


4. Clean energy
Gasoline powdered automobiles combine clean source of energy with the reliable gas-driven
engine, resulting to better mileage and lower emissions. Thanks to advancement in
technology, gasoline powered vehicles can now compete with other alternative-powered
automobiles. Additionally, they are comfortable and reliable as compared to traditional cars.

















Negative effects of gasoline

Toxicity
Petroleum distillates can create a sheen on the surface of water as a thin layer creating an optical
phenomena called interphase.
Crude oil is a mixture of many different kinds of organic compund, many of which are highly toxic and
cancer causing (carcinogenic). Oil is "acutely lethal" to fish, that is it kills fish quickly, at a concentration of
4000 parts per million (0.4%). Crude oil and petroleum distillates cause birth defects.
Benzene is present in both crude oil and gasoline and is known to cause leukemia in humans. The
compound is also known to lower the white blood cell count in humans, which would leave people
exposed to it more susceptible toinfections.
[3]
"Studies have linked benzene exposure in the mere parts
per billion (ppb) range to terminal leukemia, Hodgkins lymphoma, and other blood and immune
system diseases within 5-15 years of exposure."
Exhaust
Petroleum diesel exhaust from a truck
When oil or petroleum distillates are burned,usually the combustion is not complete. This means that
incompletely burned compounds are created in addition to just water and carbon dioxide. The other
compounds are often toxic to life. Examples are carbon monoxide and methanol. Also,
fine particulates of soot blacken humans' and other animals' lungs and cause heart problems or
death. Soot is cancer causing (carcinogenic).
Climate change
Humans burning large amounts of petroleum create large amounts of CO
2
(carbon dioxide) gas that
traps heat in the earth's atmosphere. Also some organic compounds, such as methane released
from petroleum drilling or from the petroleum itself, trap heat several times more efficiently than CO
2
.








Waste oil
Waste oil in the form of motor oil
Waste oil is used oil containing not only breakdown products but also impurities from use. Some
examples of waste oil are used oils such as hydraulic oil, transmission oil, brake fluids, motor
oil, crankcase oil, gear box oil and synthetic oil.
[8]
Many of the same problems associated with
natural petroleum exist with waste oil. When waste oil from vehicles drips out engines over streets
and roads, the oil travels into the water table bringing with it such toxins as benzene. This poisons
both soil and drinking water. Runoff from storms carries waste oil into rivers and oceans, poisoning
them as well.
