Analysis of the effects of CO2 emissions sourced by commercial marine fleet by using energy efficiency design index

Abstract

Environmentally friendly compared to other modes of transport, is still responsi?ble for 1 billionns of CO2 emissions per year and 2.7% of total global emissions, although it has the lowest CO2 emissions per mile. In order to keep the world?s sur?face temperature below the critical +2 ?C, International Maritime Organization works with alternative methods especially in the energy efficiency design index, to increase the productivity depending on the type and operation of the ship to reduce current CO2 emissions each tonne per mile basis. More energy-efficient vessels are necessary due to the increasing volume of maritime trade in parallel to meet the growing energy demands and reduce total CO2 emissions. Measures to reduce CO2 emissions also increase efficiency and fuel-savings. The most significant parameter of fuel economy is the speed of the ship. Sensitivity analysis was used to determine the ecological speed limits of vessels in terms of minimum commercial profitability by a gradual reduction in operating speeds. Consequently a solution methodology for the effects of slow steaming to the global environment is presented as a CO2 emission reduction activity under the systematic analysis of human thought.

Assessment of Vehicular Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Potentials for Reduction in A University Campus: Case Study of Bayero University Kano

“…Anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG) into the atmosphere has been on the rise since the discovery of oil. This increase in the amount of GHGs in the atmosphere has been identified as the major reason for rise in the average global temperature and the accelerated change in the world's climate (Dodman, 2009;Duan, et al, 2006;Hiller, 2011;Weitzman, 2012;Ülker et al, 2018;Mersin et al, 2019Mersin et al, , 2020. The peak of this steady increase in global temperatures was reached in the year 2016 which on record is the warmest year ever (Boykoff, et al, 2019).…”

Improvement of the Environmental Permit and License Application Process in Turkey

“…al., 2013). EU has then updated this framework in 2010 by the publication of the Directive 2010/75/EU on industrial emissions (EU, 2010;Mersin et al, 2019Mersin et al, -2020. Even though the member states have introduced some different regulations specific to their countries, they generally adapted the requirements of this directive into their national legislation and developed an integrated emission permit system (Farmer et.…”
