Solid Particle Number Emission Factors of Euro VI Heavy-Duty Vehicles on the Road and in the Laboratory
Particulate matter (PM), and in particular ultrafine particles, have a negative impact on human health. The contribution of vehicle PM emissions to air pollution is typically quantified with emission inventories, which need vehicle emission factors as input. Heavy-duty vehicles, although they represent a small percentage of the vehicle population in nearly every major country, contribute the ma...
متن کاملA Comprehensive Comparative Investigation of Compressed Natural Gas as an Alternative Fuel in a Bi-Fuel Spark Ignition Engine
Nowadays, increased attention has been focused on internal combustion engine fuels. Regarding environmental effects of internal combustion engines particularly as sources of pollution and depletion of fossil fuels, compressed natural gas has been introduced as an alternative to gasoline and diesel fuels in many applications. A high research octane number which allows combustion at higher co...
متن کاملAn electrostatic trap for control of ultrafine particle emissions from gasoline-engined vehicles
Health concerns over ultrafine (<100 nm) particles in the urban atmosphere have focused attention on measurement and control of particle number as well as mass. Gasoline-engined as well as diesel-engined vehicles are likely to be within the scope of future particulate matter (PM) emission regulations. As a potential option for after-treatment of PM emissions from gasoline engines, the trapping ...
متن کاملA GIS Based Emission Inventory of Air Pollutants from Mobile Sources in Morning Rush Hours; Case Study: Karaj
Background and Objectives: Emission inventory of mobile sources is an essential element for studying the air quality. In order to support the development of public policies with an approach to reducing the overall mass emissions of air pollutants, the aim of the current study was preparation of a GIS based emission inventory of Karaj mobile sources air pollutants. Material and methods: In the p...
متن کاملLocation of compressed natural gas stations using multi-objective flow refueling location model in the two-way highways: A case study in Iran
Increasing the use of fossil fuels is with severe environmental and economic problems, bringing more attention to alternative fuels. The compressed natural gas (CNG), as an alternative fuel, offers many more benefits than gasoline or diesel fuel such as cost-effectiveness, lower pollution, better performance, and lower maintenance costs. Gas stations location and the number of gas stations are ...
