Assessment of Shipping Emissions on Busan Port of South Korea

This study aims to accurately estimate the emissions of seven air pollutants (NOX, SOX, CO2, CO, PM2.5, PM10, and NMVOC) from ships for one year (2020) in busiest port Korea, Busan Port. To achieve this, a more detailed method calculating was developed, taking into account factors such as type fuel used, mode operation, engine output each ship that entered left port. In cases where information on ship’s main not available, regression analysis performed based tonnage. addition, auxiliary engines estimated ratio recently built ships. Finally, fishing vessels were also included calculations. Thus, port, total consumption 44,315 2020 252,519 t; during hoteling accounted 87%. detail, reflecting emission analyzed follows: NOX, 18,323 16,924 790.383 714 1484 t, 1614 NMVOC, 772 t. this provides an estimation equation tonnage, which showed highest fitness when compared actual output. methodology can be useful at detail promoting marine environment policies.
