Exhaus Gas Emissions From Ships in Marmara Sea

Abstract

Ships are very important emissions sources with high powered marine engines which use fossil fuels. There are many adverse effects of these emissions on the environment and human health. The effects of these emissions are felt especially in inland waters, channals, gulfs and port regions. In this paper, shipping emissions are estimated in Marmara Sea. The annual emission are estimated as 605e+3 t NOx, 495e+3 t SO2, 29.63e+6 t CO2, 25.6e+3 t HC and 53.3e+3 t PM , and the vessels are consumed 9.33e+6 tons of fuel. The hourly gridded emissions will be obtained for furher studies about air pollution models.

Marmara Denizi’nde Gemilerden Kaynaklanan Egzoz Emisyonları

Abstract

Gemiler, fosil yakıt kullanan yüksek güçlü makineleri ile önemli emisyon kaynaklarıdır. Bu emisyonların çevre ve insan sağlığı üzerinde olumsuz etkileri bulunmak, bu etkiler özellikle iç su, dar kanallar, körfez bölgeleri ve limanlar civarında daha fazla görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Marmara Denizi’ nde ticaret gemilerinin meydana getirdiği yıllık egzoz emisyonlarının miktarları 605 bin ton NOx, 495 bin ton SO2, 29.63 milyon ton CO2, 25.6 bin ton HC ve 53.3 bin ton PM olarak bulunmuş, gemilerin tükettiği yakıt miktarı da 9.33 milyon ton olarak tahmin edilmiştir. Elde edilen emisyon miktarları zamana ve koordinatlara göre düzenlenerek bundan sonra yapılacak olan hava kirliliği model çalışmalarına temel teşkil edecektir.
