Reduction in Emission by Optimizing Vehicle Operating Parameters
Abstract:
The demand for mobility continues to grow as economies develop and
urbanize and population and incomes increase. Transport sector emissions
have grown faster than almost any other sector over the past 50 years. They
are predicted to increase by 60 percent by 2050.A higher concentration of
zero-emission technologies is still under development.With economic
development in India, there is an increase in emission levels on the road.
Dieselization in India reduces the fleet’s overall fuel efficiency. Pollution
levels should be the prime criteria to determine urban vehicle mobility.
Three operating parameters have been considered in reducing emissions:
overloading, speed, and age of the vehicle. This paper is based on a case
study of an urban street in Mumbai connecting Thane to Borivali via
Ghodhbunder road. The changes have resulted in a reduction in the
generation of CO by simply following some operating parameters.
