Trade-linked shipping CO2 emissions

Nature Climate Change, 2021
The ambitious targets for shipping emissions reduction and challenges for mechanism design call for new approaches to encourage decarbonization. Here we build a compound model chain to deconstruct global international shipping emissions to fine-scale trade flows and propose trade-linked indicators to measure shipping emissions efficiency. International

Sulphur emissions from ships

Nature, 1999
The main natural source of sulphur dioxide (SO2) over the oceans comes from oxidation of dimethyl sulphide produced by phytoplankton. It now appears that ships also emit far more SO2pollution than expected, leading to more reflective clouds (and therefore cooling) in areas with busy shipping routes.

Fuel Cells and Shipping Emissions Mitigation

2018
Data analysis of vessels routes show that shipping is responsible of about 2,6% of world CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) emissions. The effect on environment is increased as most of the emissions are concentrated in coastal areas. IMO and other bodies are making growing efforts to impose severe limits on shipping pollutions.

GHG Emissions from CO2 Ship Transportation Chain

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
In a CCS chain, the CO2 is first captured and then transported to a suitable permanent storage site. The transport element could either be by pipeline, ship, or a combination of both, and the choice of transportation strategy will depend on several factors. Such as location of emission source, location of suitable storage sites and the volume of CO2 to

Primary particles in ship emissions

Atmospheric Environment, 2008
Abstract There is not much data available regarding particle emissions from ships. In this study the size distributions of particles in ship exhaust from three different ships in normal operational conditions were studied using a cascade impactor. The ships were equipped with slow- or medium-speed main engines and medium-speed auxiliary engines.

Updated emissions from ocean shipping

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2003
Marine vessel inventories demonstrate that ship emissions cannot be neglected in assessing environmental impacts of air pollution, although significant uncertainty in these inventories remains. We address this uncertainty by employing a bottom‐up estimate of fuel consumption and vessel activity for internationally registered fleets, including cargo ...

Shipping Emission Control Area Optimization Considering Carbon Emission Reduction

Operations Research
Managing Shipping Emission Control Areas The design of emission control areas (ECAs) is crucial for reducing global shipping emissions and protecting the environment. In “Shipping Emission Control Area Optimization Considering Carbon Emission Reduction,” Zhuge, Wang, and Zhen focus on the ECA optimization problem for sailing legs with ECAs.

Particulate emissions from commercial shipping

2009
We characterize particulate emissions on the basis of chemical, physical, and optical properties from commercial vessels. Observations during the Texas Air Quality Study/Gulf of Mexico Atmospheric Composition and Climate Study 2006 field campaign provide chemical and physical characteristics including sulfate (SO₄²⁻) mass, organic matter (OM) mass ...

Environmental Balance of Shipping Emissions Reduction Strategies

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2015
Maritime shipping is regarded as the most efficient mode of transport; however, its contribution to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions and the health issues related to shipping activity near residential centers cannot be neglected. In recent years, the efforts of regulators, ship operators, and port authorities have led to actions for ...

Mortality from Ship Emissions: A Global Assessment

Environmental Science & Technology, 2007
Epidemiological studies consistently link ambient concentrations of particulate matter (PM) to negative health impacts, including asthma, heart attacks, hospital admissions, and premature mortality. We model ambient PM concentrations from oceangoing ships using two geospatial emissions inventories and two global aerosol models.
