Energy use and emissions of two stroke powered tricycles in Metro Manila by instantaneous emissions modeling

The fuel consumption CO, CO2, NOx and HC emission factors of two stroke-powered tricycles in Metro Manila were determined and compared using an instantaneous emissions model. Results show that fuel consumption and HC emissions in middle class residential areas and main roads are similar but lower th...

Energy use and emissions of two stroke powered tricycles in Metro Manila by instantaneous emissions modeling
description The fuel consumption CO, CO2, NOx and HC emission factors of two stroke-powered tricycles in Metro Manila were determined and compared using an instantaneous emissions model. Results show that fuel consumption and HC emissions in middle class residential areas and main roads are similar but lower than levels in low income residential areas. On the average, tricycles in Metro Manila consume 24.41 km/l of fuel and produces 9.5, 9.7, 40.5 and 0.07 g/km of HC, CO, CO2 and NOx, respectively.
