Evaluation of Air Emission Modal Models: For Use in Optimizing Log Transport
项目名称: Evaluation of Air Emission Modal Models: For Use in Optimizing Log Transport
摘要: The objective of the project is to evaluate the net benefit in the reduction of green house gasses from optimization of log movements. Factors in the vehicle operating environment that may affect modal emissions, such as, external conditions, vehicle fleet characteristics, vehicle activities, vehicle gasoline specifications, inspection and maintenance programs and anti-tampering programs, etc. are considered. The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) MOBILE 6 is selected to predict gram per mile emissions of green house gasses based on average speeds for each fleet type under various conditions. Pilot input data will be collected for MOBILE 6 to estimate the emission impacts from changes in driving characteristics associated with traffic operations improvements. Large scale input data will be collected to evaluate the net benefit in the reduction of green house gasses from the optimization of log movement.
