How Many Liters of 92 Gasoline Equal One Ton?

[StEli]

Under standard atmospheric pressure and temperature, one ton of 92 gasoline equals 1,324 liters. The density of 92 gasoline is 0.755 kg/m³. Using the formula volume = mass/density, the volume of one ton of 92 gasoline is 1,000 kg / 0.755 m³ = 1,324 liters. 92 gasoline refers to gasoline with an octane rating of 92, suitable for mid-range vehicles (with lower compression ratios). On December 18, 2013, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the National Standardization Administration Committee jointly issued the fifth-stage national standard for automotive gasoline—"Automotive Gasoline" (GB17930--2013, replacing GB17930--2011). Gasoline is crucial for car owners, as it is a key factor enabling continuous vehicle operation. The presence of a fuel tank cap allows for better storage of gasoline. By checking the label on the back of the fuel tank cap, car owners can determine which type of gasoline is suitable for their vehicle. The appropriate gasoline grade can also be found in the vehicle's user manual or on the fuel tank cap, which usually indicates the recommended grade. Typically, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with a compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 gasoline, those between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 gasoline, and those with higher compression ratios should use 98 gasoline. However, with the introduction of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the appropriate gasoline grade. High-compression engines can also be tuned to use lower-grade gasoline, as factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Gasoline specification indicators: "Automotive Gasoline" (GB17930--2013) introduced density specifications for the first time, with a value of 720–775 kg/m³ at 20°C, ensuring relatively stable fuel economy for vehicles. The sulfur content limit was reduced from 50 μg/g in the fourth stage to 10 μg/g, an 80% reduction. The manganese concentration limit was lowered from 8 mg/L in the fourth stage to 2 mg/L, prohibiting the artificial addition of manganese-containing additives. The olefin content was reduced from 28% in the fourth stage to 24%. Adjustments were made to vapor pressure and gasoline grades. The lower limit of winter vapor pressure was increased from 42 kPa in the fourth stage to 45 kPa, while the upper limit of summer vapor pressure was reduced from 68 kPa to 65 kPa. Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hainan are required to adhere to summer vapor pressure year-round. Additionally, considering the reduction in octane rating due to sulfur reduction and the ban on manganese, as well as the shortage of high-octane resources domestically, the standard adjusted the gasoline grades from 90, 93, and 97 to 89, 92, and 95, respectively, based on the practical conditions of the refining industry. The standard's appendix added technical requirements and testing methods for 98 gasoline (V). It is estimated that implementing "Automotive Gasoline" (GB17930--2013) will significantly reduce vehicle pollutant emissions. In-use vehicles are expected to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by approximately 300,000 tons annually, while new vehicles could reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by about 90,000 tons over five years.
