VOCs Emissions from Vehicle Evaporative Processes Take-home Messages: ( 1 ) Emission factor measurements : diurnal, hot soak, permeation, refueling regular gasoline, E10 Tier 2, Euro 3/4 ( 2 ) Emission inventory: 882 Gg ( 3 ) Policy suggestion: China moves from current Euro standards to US Tier 2 48 hr test. Huan Liu Dr., Associate Professor Tsinghua University
Method: emission measurements US Tier2 vehicles Euro/China Type IV test US 48-hour test+ 24-hour permeation Euro/China IV vehicles US 72-hour diurnal test US Refueling Test Sample gas in the SHED and analysis using GC-MS/FID method Species analysis RVP of test fuel Purge rate during driving cycles Weight of canisters Emission factors SHED tests Characteristic, emission process, species profile……
