1 Estimating Impact of Traffic Operation on Carbon Emission Faculty Mentor: Dr. Heng Wei Students: Racquel Redwood Sweta Patel

2 Introduction Car-based urban transport systems have proved unsustainable, consuming excessive energy, affecting the health of populations and delivering a declining level of service despite increasing investments. The tailpipe emissions of vehicles as a consequence of the incomplete burning of carbon result in multiple products including Carbon Monoxide and Particulate matter (PM)

3 Instruments and Methods Sampler (with filter) for measuring Black Carbon Carbon Monoxide sensor Aethalometer to measure real-time Black Carbon Manometer to measure pressure of sampler Video Cameras to capture real time traffic flow NOx analyzer to measure Nitrogen oxide compounds Condensation Particle Counter

4 Student Goals Obtain fundamental knowledge about traffic engineering and environmental engineering Learn to design data plan/ experiment set Become familiar with tools and techniques in analyzing traffic and pollutants Understand traffic operation impact on carbon emission
