Tracking pollutant emissions

Nature Geoscience, 2017
Progress in the post-combustion treatment of diesel vehicle exhaust has led to shifting proportions of the constituents of nitrogen oxides. Observations from 61 European cities suggest that the outlook on attaining NO2 standards is more optimistic than expected.

Minor Sources Of Air Pollutant Emissions

Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association, 1970
Emission source inventories for air pollutants have considered major categories such as transportation, domestic heating, electric power generation, refuse burning, industrial fuel consumption and process emissions, as well as commercial, institutional, and governmental space heat fuel burning.

Traffic pollution modelling and emission data

Environmental Modelling & Software, 2006
Evaluation of traffic pollution in streets requires basically information on three main factors: traffic emissions, the meteorological conditions and the street surroundings. Dispersion models exist with various degree of sophistication, which are able to properly describe the dispersion conditions, and thus to predict the relationships between ...

Formation and emission of chloroanisoles as indoor pollutants

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2004
Complaints by residents of frame-houses about musty odour in the houses has become an increasing problem within the last years. An additional problem is that the odour is transferred to clothes and skin. The persons themselves do not recognize the smell after a while because of adaptation. Serious social problems are the result.

A monopoly with pollution emissions

Journal of Environmental Planning and Management, 2012
This study focused on pollution emissions. It considered a monopoly industry, and the monopolist's pollution emissions were addressed. The equilibrium price, social welfare and the monopolist's profit were all characterised. The theoretical conclusion was confirmed that there should be a special type of emissions tax.

Emissions of Air Pollutants

2004
Well founded and reliable emission data are necessary to implement strategies to investigate and control air pollution caused by the transport and chemical transformation of air pollutants. This book contains a wealth of new information that enables environmental scientists and authorities dealing with air pollution to design methods for measuring and ...

Pollution: Emission and Control

1993
Pollution control has become a much more salient planning issue in the 1990s, with an emphasis on a greater variety of pollutants: not just smoke and toxic emissions but also those which cause acid rain and contribute to global warming. At the same time, there has been a resurgence of interest in fiscal instruments, such as pollution taxes, to replace ...

The Pollutants and Their Emission Factors

1987
The traditional biofuels include a wide range of materials in different physical forms. Crop residues such as stems from cotton and oilseed plants, rice straw, and coconut husks make important contributions as do dried dung from large animals such as cattle, buffalo, and camels. Scrub plants, weeds, cactus, and other miscellaneous forms of biomass also

The effect of pollutant emission reduction

ATZautotechnology, 2006
Since 1995, there has been an agreement by the ACEA promising to reduce the CO2 emissions of newly marketed cars by 25% by the year 2008 as compared to 1995. The target value of 140 grams of CO2 corresponds to a fuel consumption of 5.3 litres of diesel or 5.8 litres of petrol per 100 kilometres.

A city-wide emissions inventory of plastic pollution

Environmental Science & Technology
A global agreement on plastic should have quantitative reduction targets for emissions of plastic pollution and regular measurements to track success. Here, we present a framework for measuring plastic emissions, akin to greenhouse gas emissions, and demonstrate its utility by calculating a baseline measurement for the city of Toronto in Ontario ...
