Download or read book Benefits and Impacts of Multi level Emission Standards on the Fuel Economy Characteristics of Small and Large Cars written by and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brief review of the small car vs large car fuel economy and emission scenario was conducted to determine whether it is meaningful to implement multi-level emission regulations (different values for small and large cars) to encourage or forces the use of catalytic converters on smaller cars, and by so doing improve the overall fuel economy of the total fleet while at the same time reduce overall emissions. The results of this review showed that: the 1975 to 1976 federal HC standard (1.5 gr/mi) is sufficiently low to effectively force the use of catalysts on larger cars (4000-lb inertia test weight and above) to avoid fuel economy losses, but not sufficiently low to require them on all smaller cars (3500-lb class and below). However, the 1975 to 1976 California HC standard (0.9 gr/mi) is sufficiently low to do so, as evidenced by the fact that essentially all California cars do use catalysts; whether or not small or large cars are equipped with oxidation catalysts, NOx standards below the current federal level (3.1 gr/mi) and California level (2 gr/mi) will act to reduce vehicle fuel economy, although small cars are slightly less sensitive in this respect; to meet the projected federal and California HC standard of 0.41 gr/mi, both small and large cars will be forced to use catalysts, since this is the only available emission control technique for the conventional spark ignition engine; and to ensure the fuel economy and emission benefits of catalysts, ERDA need only support the implementation of the proposed HC standard of 0.41 gr/mi. Making the federal standard the same as the California one would also produce this result.

Download or read book Air Quality Management in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-08-30 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing the nation's air quality is a complex undertaking, involving tens of thousands of people in regulating thousands of pollution sources. The authors identify what has worked and what has not, and they offer wide-ranging recommendations for setting future priorities, making difficult choices, and increasing innovation. This new book explores how to better integrate scientific advances and new technologies into the air quality management system. The volume reviews the three-decade history of governmental efforts toward cleaner air, discussing how air quality standards are set and results measured, the design and implementation of control strategies, regulatory processes and procedures, special issues with mobile pollution sources, and more. The book looks at efforts to spur social and behavioral changes that affect air quality, the effectiveness of market-based instruments for air quality regulation, and many other aspects of the issue. Rich in technical detail, this book will be of interest to all those engaged in air quality management: scientists, engineers, industrial managers, law makers, regulators, health officials, clean-air advocates, and concerned citizens.
Download or read book State and Federal Standards for Mobile Source Emissions written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-06-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emissions from mobile sources contribute significantly to air pollution in the United States. Such sources include cars and light- and heavy-duty trucks; diesel-powered cranes, bulldozers, and tractors; and equipment such as lawnmowers that run on small gasoline engines. The role of state versus federal government in establishing mobile-source emissions standards is an important environmental management issue. With this in mind, Congress called on EPA to arrange an independent study of the practices and procedures by which California develops separate emissions standards from the federal government and other states choose to adopt the California standards. The report provides an assessment of the scientific and technical procedures used by states to develop or adopt different emissions standards and a comparison of those policies and practices with those used by EPA. It also considers the impacts of state emissions standards on various factors including compliance costs and emissions. The report concludes that, despite the substantial progress in reducing emissions from mobile sources nationwide, more needs to be done to attain federal air-quality standards in many parts of the country. Additionally, California should continue its pioneering role in setting emissions standards for cars, trucks, and off-road equipment.
Download or read book Reduced Emissions and Fuel Consumption in Automobile Engines written by Fred Schäfer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last several years, there has been much discussion on the interrelation of CO2 emissions with the global warming phenomenon. This in turn has increased pressure to develop and produce more fuel efficient engines and vehicles. This is the central topic of this book. It covers the underlying processes which cause pollutant emissions and the possibilities of reducing them, as well as the fuel consumption of gasoline and diesel engines, including direct injection diesel engines. As well as the engine-related causes of pollution, which is found in the raw exhaust, there is also a description of systems and methods for exhaust post treatment. The significant influence of fuels and lubricants (both conventional and alternative fuels) on emission behavior is also covered. In addition to the conventional gasoline and diesel engines, lean-burn and direct injection gasoline engines and two-stroke gasoline and diesel engines are included. The potential for reducing fuel consumption and pollution is described as well as the related reduction of CO2 emissions. Finally, a detailed summary of the most important laws and regulations pertaining to pollutant emissions and consumption limits is presented. This book is intended for practising engineers involved in research and applied sciences as well as for interested engineering students.

This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book addresses the need for further measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union, arguing that the EU Emissions Trading Scheme does not offer sufficient incentives for the carbon-intensive materials sector. It highlights the challenge that emissions from industries such as iron and steel, cement and aluminium, amongst others, pose to the EU’s commitment to significantly cut emissions by 2030.
