Sentence examples for lower carbon content from inspiring English sources

Natural gas is a tempting option on the face of it because of its lower carbon content compared with gasoline, says Leffin.

In the short term, an emissions charge would create a major impetus for a move from oil and coal to natural gas, with its much lower carbon content.

As societies have grown wealthier, they have been shifting from dirty solid fuels with a high carbon content to liquid hydrocarbon fuels with a lower carbon content, and ultimately to clean-burning gases.

Cooling steel with a lower carbon content (e.g., 0.25 percent) results in a microstructure containing about 50 percent pearlite and 50 percent ferrite; this is softer than pearlite, with a DPH of about 130. Steel with more than 0.77 percent carbon for instance, 1.05 percent contains in its microstructure pearlite and cementite; it is harder than pearlite and may have a DPH of 250.
