The purpose of this paper is to offer an initial presentation and classification of the methodological approaches used to analyzing energy demand, related CO2 emissions and economic development for countries, regions and subsequently to provide for an extended survey of related articles for the case...

One efficient way to control the CO2 emissions from the transport sector is the replacement of gasoline passenger cars by Diesel ones, which emit less CO2. This can be more effective in Finland, where the Diesel penetration is only 13.6%, which is very low compared to the other member countries of...

Electricity generation in solid fuel fired power stations is currently the main source of flying particulates and greenhouse gases emissions. Environmental pollution is expected to deteriorate dramatically in the coming century unless pollution abatement technologies for solid fuels energy...

The present study is performed with the aim to reduce the levels of polluting emissions from fuel combustion that produce acid rains and the greenhouse effect (NOx, CO2). The electric field effects on the processes of heat/mass transfer and propane combustion are studied in order to perform electric...

The aim of this paper is to identify the factors that have influenced changes in the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from the Greek manufacturing sector as a whole and from three representative subsectors. By means of an algebraic decomposition method the changes recorded during the period...

Electricity generation is the single most important sector in which CO2 reductions are achievable, with advanced generation technologies available and the existence of a centralised production structure, if compared to the transport or the industrial sector. It is a market undergoing a radical...

Analysis and simulation of the behaviour of gas turbines for power generation using different nonconventional fuels obtained from different renewable sources are presented. Three biomass-tobiofuel processes are considered: anaerobic digestion of biomass (biogas), biomass gasification (synthesis gas)...

In this paper, a detailed spatial allocated emissions inventory for Cyprus is presented. Topdown and bottom-up methodologies are implemented and emissions are estimated from all anthropogenic sources for the reference year 2002 with the aid of state-of-the-art algorithms. Emission factors...

Application of material balance analysis (in one of our previous studies) to natural gas flare in the upstream petroleum operations confirmed the emission of primary air pollutants in form of CO, CO2, NO, and NO2 from “sweet” natural gas while “sour” gas emits SO2 in addition; incomplete combustion...
