Arguments

p

Character;

Pollutants: "CO", "HC", "NMHC", "CH4", "NOx", "CO2", "RCHO" (aldehydes + formaldehyde), "ETOH", "PM", "N2O", "KML", "FC", "NO2", "NO", "NH3", "gD/KWH", "gCO2/KWH", "RCHO_0km" (aldehydes + formaldehyde), "PM25RES", "PM10RES", "CO_0km", "HC_0km", "NMHC_0km", "NOx_0km", "NO2_0km" ,"NO_0km", "RCHO_0km" and "ETOH_0km", "FS" (fuel sales) (g/km). If scale = "tunnel" is used, there is also "ALD" for aldehydes and "HCHO" for formaldehydes Evaporative emissions at average temperature ranges: "D_20_35", "S_20_35", "R_20_35", "D_10_25", "S_10_25", "R_10_25", "D_0_15", "S_0_15" and "R_0_15" where D means diurnal (g/day), S hot/warm soak (g/trip) and R hot/warm running losses (g/trip). THe deteriorated emission factors are calculated inside this function.

year

Numeric; Filter the emission factor to start from a specific base year. If project is 'constant' values above 2017 and below 1980 will be repeated

agemax

Integer; age of oldest vehicles for that category

scale

Character; values "default","tunnel" o "tunnel2018". If "tunnel", emission factors are scaled to represent EF measurements in tunnels in Sao Paulo

sppm

Numeric, sulfur (sulphur) in ppm in fuel.

full

Logical; To return a data.frame instead or a vector adding Age, Year, Brazilian emissions standards and its euro equivalents.

efinput

data.frame with efinput structure of sysdata cetesb. Allow apply deterioration for future emission factors

verbose

Logical; To show more information

csv

String with the path to download the ef in a .csv file. For instance, ef.csv

Value

A vector of Emission Factor or a data.frame

Note

new emission factors ar projects as the lates available,

The new convention for vehicles names are translated from CETESB report:

The percentage varies of biofuels varies by law.

This emission factors are not exactly the same as the report of CETESB.

1) In this emission factors, there is also NO and NO2 based on split by published in the EMEP/EEA air pollutant emission inventory guidebook.

2) Also, the emission factors were extended till 50 years of use, repeating the oldest value.

3) CNG emission factors were expanded to other pollutants by comparison of US.EPA-AP42 emission factor: Section 1.4 Natural Gas Combustion.

In the previous versions I used the letter 'd' for deteriorated. I removed the letter 'd' internally to not break older code.

If by mistake, the user inputs one of veh names from the old convention, they are internally changed to the new convention: "SLT", "LT", "MT", "SHT","HT", "UB", "SUB", "COACH", "ARTIC", "M_G_150", "M_G_150_500", "M_G_500", "M_FG_150", "M_FG_150_500", "M_FG_500", "M_FE_150", "M_FE_150_500","M_FE_500", PC_ELEC, LCV_ELEC, TRUCKS_ELEC, BUS_ELEC, MC_150_ELEC, MC_150_500_ELEC, MC_500_ELEC

If pollutant is "SO2", it needs sppm. It is designed when veh has length 1, if it has length 2 or more, it will show a warning

Emission factor for vehicles older than the reported by CETESB were filled with las highest EF

Currently, 2020, there are not any system for recovery of fuel vapors in Brazil. Hence, the FS takes into account the vapour that comes from the fuel tank inside the car and released into the atmosphere when injecting new fuel. There are discussions about increasing implementing stage I and II and/or ORVR these days. The ef FS is calculated by transforming g FC/km into (L/KM)*g/L with g/L 1.14 fgor gasoline and 0.37 for ethanol (CETESB, 2016). The density considered is 0.75425 for gasoline and 0.809 for ethanol (t/m^3)

CETESB emission factors did not cover evaporative emissions from motorcycles, which occur. Therefore, in the absence of better data, it was assumed the same ratio from passenger cars.

If scale is used with tunnel, the references are:

Emission factors for resuspension applies only with top-down approach as a experimental feature. Units are g/(streets*veh)/day. These values were derived form a bottom-up resuspension emissions from metropolitan area of Sao Paulo 2018, assuming 50000 streets

NH3 from EEA Tier 2
