Structural evolution of China’s intersectoral embodied carbon emission flow network

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021
Mount of embodied carbon emissions flow along industrial chains and form a complex network. In order to reveal the structure and evolution characteristics of embodied carbon emission flow network among China's industrial sectors, this study applies a complex network theory to construct six embodied carbon emission flow networks with 30 sectors on the ...

China’s inter-regional embodied carbon emissions: An industrial transfer perspective

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021
In the context of internal circulation, domestic trade is widely encouraged in China. However, the growth of inter-provincial trade may aggravate inter-regional embodied carbon emissions transfer. The knowledge about the causes of changes in embodied carbon emissions from an industry transfer perspective is limited, which is significant for achieving ...

Embodied Energy and Carbon Emissions of Pavements: A Review

2019
Energy consumption takes place at each stage of pavement construction, right from extraction of raw materials to finished products like roads. Carbon emission is an undesirable product that materializes simultaneously with energy consumption that is indispensable right through the construction activities.

Estimating the embodied carbon emissions from the material content

Energy Conversion and Management, 1997
The embodied carbon emissions includes the direct and indirect carbon emitted for the entire production process. These values are needed to estimate impacts on carbon emissions due to changes in consumption patterns. We have developed a model of the economic system to account for every production process.

The Net Flow of Carbon Emissions Embodied in Trade of China

Journal of Resources and Ecology, 2015
Abstract Based on the most current GTAP8 database, we analyzed flow, structure and change in trade-embodied carbon emissions between China and the developed world and the developing world from 2004 to 2007 using input-output model. We found that China was always a net embodied emissions exporting country over this period.

Embodied Carbon Emissions

The United Nation (UN) projects that 2.5 billion more people will live in cities by 2050, up from 4.4 billion today. Of the growing global population, most will come from the urban areas of low- and middle-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, with Sub-Saharan African cities currently already seeing a 4.1 percent growth in population ...

Emission reduction effect and transmission mechanism of carbon tax from the perspective of embodied carbon emissions

Journal of Environmental Management
While carbon tax is widely recognized as a critical policy for addressing climate change, its effectiveness in curbing emissions through demand-side adjustments remains debated. This study investigates its potential to reduce emissions from the perspective of embodied emissions in final consumption, innovatively constructing an extended general ...

Statistical analysis of embodied carbon emission for building construction

Energy and Buildings, 2015
Abstract Buildings are significant contributors to the greenhouse effect through emission of considerable carbon dioxide during their life cycle. Life cycle carbon resulting from buildings consists of two components: operational carbon (OC) and embodied carbon (EC).

How GVC division affects embodied carbon emissions in China’s exports?

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020
With the rapid growth of China's foreign trade scale, the embodied carbon emissions in China's exports show a significant upward trend, which has been experiencing a considerable increase of researchers' attention. This study attempts to measure the embodied carbon emissions in China's exports from 1995 to 2011 based on the MRIO model and WIOD data ...
