there are many potential sources of stormwater pollutants in urban areas; one of these sources is gas stations, which are numerous and spread city-wide. a study was conducted to evaluate the water quality of runoff from gas stations in the city of tijuana, mexico. pollutant loads in runoff from gas stations in the study area were higher than in other published studies. the estimated loads from ...

There are similar algorithms and infrastructure for storing gas fuels at CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) and CHG (Compressed Hydrogen Gas) fuelling stations. In these stations, the fuels are usually stored in the cascade storage system to utilize the stations more efficiently. The cascade storage system generally divides into three reservoirs, commonly termed low, medium and high-pressure reservoi...

The primary dimension of product differentiation in the retail gasoline market is spatial in the sense that a gas station’s market power depends on the locations of all other gas stations. In contrast to previous empirical studies, I ...

In this paper, the optimal numbers of gas and hydrogen stations are examined. Recently, the possibility of gasoline vehicles being replaced with fuel cell vehicles (FCV) is being examined in the coming hydrogen society. The realization of this scenario however needs a large number of hydrogen refueling stations, which hardly exist at the present. We first calculate the optimal number of hydroge...
