However, the authors note, these particles have not been taken into account in emission regulations and in the assessment of associated health risks. Results thus indicate that the emissions of engine braking particles can be reduced using exhaust particle filtration systems. changing driving conditions also affect particle emissions.

A three-part subsystem was developed; the primary step is an anaerobic digestion reaction to produce biogas from the olive mill waste; the second step is a reformer to convert the biogas to a hydrogen rich gas (reformate); and the last step is to pass the reformate gas to a fuel cell system to make electricity.

None of the EEA scenarios considered delivered the targeted reduction in transport GHG emissions. The report’s findings for the period 1997–2007 present a mixed picture, with some improvements in air pollutants and serious concerns regarding persistent growth in transport’s greenhouse gas emissions.

The city of Athens, in Greece, is buying 108 Mercedes Benz Econic natural gas vehicles which will be used in refuse collection across the city. The natural gas drive system produces up to 90 per cent fewer particulate emissions than an advanced diesel engine, meaning there is a substantial contribution to improving air quality.

The study estimates that emissions from destruction of seagrass meadows can potentially emit up to 25% as much carbon as those from terrestrial deforestation. Seagrass meadows, the researchers found, store 90% of their carbon in the soil, and continue to build on it for centuries. At least 1.5% of Earth’s seagrass meadows are lost every year.

Ammonia, produced via the Haber-Bosch (HB) process, is globally the leading chemical in energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. In ammonia plants, hydrogen is generated by steam-methane reforming (SMR) and water-gas shift (WGS) and, subsequently, is purified for the high-pressure ammonia synthesis.
