New York City Clean Air Taxi rules are successful in cutting emissions and reducing air pollution, [link] to a new study by researchers at the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and Drexel University. The scientists report that overall fuel efficiency of the medallion taxi fleet climbed from 15.7

The research also found that taxi drivers experience the highest exposures to black carbon, an indicator of diesel engine fumes, compared to couriers, truck drivers, waste removal and emergency service workers. It was a collaboration between researchers at King’s and researchers at Queen Mary University of London. —Shanon Lim.

Now, in addition to already investigated particle sources such as emissions from heating systems, industry and road traffic, aircraft turbine engine particle emissions have, in the wake of increasing air traffic, also become more important. Image: University of Bern /SR Technics Switzerland AG.

A study by researchers from the University of Denver and the University of Puget Sound indicates that high-mileage light-duty fleets contribute higher emissions and emissions share than expected based on their actual numbers in the fleet.

A team from Tongji University in China has generated comprehensive emission factors (functional relations between pollutant emissions and the activity that causes them) for Shanghai, China light-duty vehicles at various average speed levels. g/km; 4 to 7 g/km; and 0.4 g/km, respectively.

During rush hour, the skies over a large city, such as Dubai or Madrid or Los Angeles, would swarm with hundreds, and eventually thousands, of eVTOL “air taxis.” If it does happen, a few studies have predicted that travel times and greenhouse-gas and pollutant emissions could all be reduced. A 2020 study published by the U.S.

Consequently, vehicle emissions have become an increasingly conspicuous contributor to air pollution in Chinese urban areas. Light-duty vehicles together contributed to 82% of all distance traveled (passenger cars, 64%; taxis, 18 %), buses and trucks contributed to 11% and 8% of total distance traveled respectively.
