The importance of the problem of effective use of traditional energy sources and the search for alternative resources is beyond doubt. However, nowadays Ukraine does not fully use the potential of low-calorie gases, in particular, biogas, produced by agriculture and industry in large quantities. The number of available domestic installations for the disposal of this gas is negligible although a great number of developed countries have thousands of such facilities. One of the most advantageous sources of energy is biogas produced out of biological waste from communal and agricultural dumps - landfill sites for waste disposal. It is meanwhile burnt in flares or emitted into the atmosphere contaminating it heavily. The level of biogas used as a fuel in automotive internal combustion engines is very low. However, replacing gasoline with biogas results in engine power reduction and fuel consumption increase. This should be taken into account when operating cars in mountainous areas where atmospheric pressure and temperature are lower.
