Impact of Driving Cycles on Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions, Global Warming Potential (GWP) and Fuel Economy for SI Car Real World Driving

, 2009
The transport sector is one of the major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. This study investigated three greenhouse gases emitted from road transport: CO2, N2O and CH4 emissions as a function of engine warm up and driving cycles.

Assessing Global Warming Potential (GWP) of the Production of Oil and Natural Gas in Pangkah Block Field, Indonesia

International Journal of Applied and Scientific Research
The production of oil and natural gas is the main source of economic activity and a vital component of the global energy system.  However, a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions that directly cause anthropogenic climate change is the production process.

Performance Evaluation and Working Fluid Screening of Direct Vapor Generation for Solar ORC Using Low-Global Warming Potential (GWP) Working Fluids

Energies
Traditional working fluids used in direct vapor generation for solar organic Rankine cycle (DVG-ORC) systems have a high global warming potential (GWP), making it imperative to find environmentally friendly alternative working fluids for these systems. This paper evaluates the performance of the DVG-ORC system under different operating conditions.

Carbon‐Intensive Agriculture: Agricultural Trade Openness, Energy Use, and Environmental Challenges in High‐Emission Countries

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the socioeconomic determinants of agricultural CO2 emissions in the 10 highest‐emitting agricultural economies from 1992 to 2022. Using the LM bootstrap cointegration method and the method of moments quantile regression (MMQR), the analysis identifies long‐run relationships and heterogeneous effects across the emissions ...
