A Fuel-Based Motor Vehicle Emission Inventory.
A fuel-based methodology for calculating motor vehicle emission inventories is presented. In the fuel-based method, emission factors are normalized to fuel consumption and expressed as grams of pollutant emitted per gallon of gasoline burned. Fleet-average emission factors are calculated from the measured on-road emissions of a large, random sample of vehicles. Gasoline use is known at the stat...
متن کاملFuel-Based On-Road Motor Vehicle Emissions Inventory for the Denver Metropolitan Area
Emission inventories from mobile sources have traditionally been obtained through computer modeling. This method, however, has intrinsic shortcomings in that ideal factors are included while real-world observations are left out. The model predictions have not correlated well with measurements from several studies. Recently, a fuel-based method of obtaining on-road emissions inventories has been...
متن کاملA Fuel-Based Approach to Estimating Motor Vehicle Cold-Start Emissions.
The temporary ineffectiveness of motor vehicle emission controls at startup causes emission rates to be much higher for a short period after starting than during fully warmed, or stabilized, vehicle operation. Official motor vehicle emission inventories estimate that excess emissions during cold-start operation contribute a significant fraction of all hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide (CO), and nitr...
متن کاملFuel Efficiency and Motor Vehicle Travel: The Declining Rebound Effect
We estimate the rebound effect for motor vehicles, by which improved fuel efficiency causes additional travel, using a pooled cross section of US states for 1966-2001. Our model accounts for endogenous changes in fuel efficiency, distinguishes between autocorrelation and lagged effects, includes a measure of the stringency of fuel-economy standards, and allows the rebound effect to vary with in...
