China accounted for 30 percent of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2023, making it the world's largest emitter by far. The United States and India followed. Combined, these three countries were responsible for roughly half of the 53 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtC...
The limitation of this study is that the WARM uses 46 different categories of waste and their emission factors are accepted as per its norm, which may slightly differ for similar types of materials in India.NripendraJaypeeSinghJaypeeDavid
In addition, emission factors (EF) are required by specific types of energy resource or fuel in order to analyze the environmental impacts using Eq. (2). In this study, emission factors used to analyze GHG emissions are based on default values of the 2006 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Ch...
Clean Development Mechanism is one such mechanism through which industrialised countries can reduce emission by purchasing emission credit from other countries by investing in their projects. The global per capita emission of CO_2 is 3.87 tonnes, whereas India stands at 0.93 tonnes and USA at 20.01...
Wastewater infrastructure of the NCT of Delhi uses 449 MWh/day, of which about 55% is from electricity. Net GHG emission of the infrastructure is 5.55 Gg CO2-eq/day (σ = 0.73 Gg CO2-eq). The estimates are conservative because only 41% of wastewater is treated of the total wastewater ...
This tool is based on the First Order Decay (FOD) method. The FOD method takes the time factors of the degradation process into account, and results in annual emission estimates of the GHG emission. The FOD method results in nearly accurate estimates of the annual GHG emissions from the wast...
Long-Term Emission Factors for Land Application of Treated Organic Municipal Waste. Environ. Model. Assess. 2016, 21, 111–124. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] Smith, W.N.; Grant, B.B.; Campbell, C.A.; McConkey, B.G.; Desjardins, R.L.; Kröbel, R.; Malhi, S.S. Crop Residue ...
3.2. Conceptual Framework The main research issues discussed in the paper are: (1) How do the agro-economic factors influence the emission of GHG in European developing economies in comparison with advanced economies? (2) What are the measures for GHG emissions mitigation in agriculture in ...
[15] warn that most renewable energy technologies can be less competitive than non-renewable energies due to their high level of initial cost of capital and therefore, high electricity costs. This indicates the competitive disadvantage of renewable energy due to the long payback period required to ...
Babu and Ashok proposed a nonlinear programming model for electricity loading management, renewable energy utilization, and GHG emission mitigation in India [167]. Kamarudin et al. proposed an optimum hydrogen delivery network through the development of a mixed integer linear programming model and a ...
