Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEmission Factors of CH4 and CO2 Emitted from VehiclesSutthicha Nilrit, Pantawat Sampanpanish, Surat BualertThe study of the Emission Factors (EF) of methane (CH4) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emitted from vehicle exhaust is the study of greenhouse gases that are crucial to climate change. These gases are part of a fuel known as Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) or as Natural Gas for Vehicles (NGV) in Thailand. This fuel is used as an alternative to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2013 · 8,199 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study of Particle Emissions from a Modern 5 kW Pellet StoveIgor V. Dyakov, Benjamin Bergmans, Svend Bram et al.This work is dedicated to the determination of the particle emission from a commercially available bottom feed 5 kW pellet stove. Two-stage dilution was applied to provide the operational stability and conditioning of the sample. The analysis of particle emission was performed by means of the Electrical Low Pressure Impactor with 14 stages, able to separate particles from 0.006 to … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Oct 2016 · 6,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Modeling Framework for Highway Traffic Pollution Estimation and DispersionShu Yang, Yao-Jan Wu, John WoolschlagerAir quality is of great concern to the public. Airborne pollutants, such as carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and Particulate Matter (PM), negatively impact people’s living conditions. In particular, vehicular exhaust is a major source of these pollutants. Extensive previous research has contributed to modeling traffic pollutant emission. Popular approaches include computational simulation-based methods, which have been dominant in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 13 May 2016 · 7,434 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION OF MICRO-COGENERATION SYSTEM FOR CONVENIENCE STORES IN THAILANDSuapphong Kritsanawonghong, Weijun Gao, Pawinee Iamtrakul, Soichiro KurokiThe growing worldwide demand for effective energy utilization has led to numerous techniques for rational use of energy including conservation techniques and renewable energy utilization. Recently, the number of small scale buildings such as minimarts and convenience stores in Thailand has increased rapidly. However, the interest of effective energy utilization has not been focused on the implementation of the new … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 15 May 2014 · 7,450 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Vehicle Flows and Emissions for Various Scenarios of Street Network Modifications in Mexico CityAngelica Lozano, Francisco Granados, Juan Pablo AntunWe estimate flows and emissions (NOx, HC, CO) generated by vehicles circulating on the main streets of the Mexico City Metropolitan Area. The estimation is made for various scenarios, which include a set of changes to the street network for current and future horizons. These changes encompass the construction of new arcs or improvement of existing arcs. Network flows are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPM Emissions in a Urban ContextEnrico Brizio, Giuseppe Genon, Stefania BorsarelliWithin a urban environment, three different sources of particulate matter should be considered: heating plants using different combustibles (natural gas, gas oil, fuel oil, wood), industrial plants placed in the surrounding area, traffic. While the effects of the first two origins can be easily calculated on the basis of existing emission factors, the PM emissions from traffic are of two … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVirtual Assessment of air Pollution Dispersion from Anthropogenic Sudden ExplosionMarvel Lola Akinyemi, Moses Eterigho Emetere, Mojisola Rachel UsikaluThe control of air pollutants from anthropogenic sources seems almost impossible due to numerous influencing factors present in the atmosphere. In this study, we carried out a virtual mathematical experimentation using Math CAD, Mat lab and analytical approximation to estimate the dimensional impact of initial pollutant plume cloud from a sudden volcanic blast and the dynamics of its wind field. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 9 Apr 2016 · 7,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing Forest Plantation Productivity of Exotic and Indigenous Species on Degraded Secondary ForestsYetti Heryati, Arifin Abdu, Mohd Noor Mahat et al.Problem Statement: There is general agreement that human activities such as deforestation and land use change to other land use types have contributed to degraded secondary forests or forestland and increases the emission of greenhouse gases which ultimately led to global climate change. An establishment of forest plantation in particular is regarded as an important approach for sequestering carbon. However, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 10,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExpecting the Unexpected Macroeconomic Volatility and Climate PolicyGajendra Singh ChauhanProblem statement: Analysts have been comparing a policy scenario with a baseline scenario of future economic conditions without the policy, to estimate the emissions reductions and costs of a climate policy. Both scenarios required assumptions about the future course of numerous factors such as population growth, technical change and non-climate policies like taxes. Approach: The purpose of this study was … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal SO2 Emissions from Power Stations and Evaluation of their Impact in Kuwait Using a Gaussian Plume Dispersion ModelA.A. Ramadan, M. Al-Sudairawi, S. Alhajraf, A.R. KhanIn Kuwait, most of the power stations use fuel oil as the prime source of energy. The sulphur content (S%) of the fuel used as well as other factors have a direct impact on the ground level concentration of sulphur dioxide (SO2) released by power stations into the atmosphere. The SO2 ground level concentration has to meet the environmental standards … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,850 accessesView PDFCite
