An experimental investigation of the effect of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) on emissions in a single cylinder electric generator has been carried out. Liquified petroleum gas is well developed for use in domestic cooking and is gaining recognition as a fuel for vehicle propulsion and portable electric generator. It is readily available, cost effective, low carbon and reduced emission compared to gasoline. The investigation was carried out to study the emission associated with using LPG and to present a proposal for the adoption of LPG which can aid in the reduction of toxic gas emissions from engines used for power-generating and for vehicle propulsion in the urban, peri-urban, and rural areas of the country. The low carbon content of LPG will also translate into highly reduced carbon dioxide (CO2) emission which is the key global warming emission. This investigation involves the use of portable exhaust gas emission analyzer to sample and compare exhaust gases between gasoline and LPG emissions from a single cylinder 4-stroke 7KVA mobile power-generating set. This engine is the most popular among the low income earner in Nigeria and at the same it also dominate the propulsion system of the 2-and 3-wheel vehicle that are in millions across the country and other Sub Saharan Africa regions. The result of the investigation showed that LPG emissions and cost of fuel is lower than that of pure gasoline.
