Question Answer
CO2
start learning
CO2 emissions, global warming
1-Impact on The Environment
start learning
Emission of CO2 is the consequence of the combustion of fuel
2-Impact on The Environment
start learning
About 22% of these emissions come from fuel combustion in the transport sector of which road traffic contributes 95%, domestic aviation and domestic navigation about 2% each and railways about 1%.
3-Impact on The Environment
start learning
Shipping have an impact on the marine environment through waste, oil spill, the emission of grey and black water
4-Impact on The Environment
start learning
Noise is a large problem with air transport, as well as with rail and road transport and in some cases, ports.
5-Impact on The Environment
start learning
Other aspects include barrier effects and land use.
1-Road Transport
start learning
1-drogowy transport
2-Road Transport
start learning
2-drogowy transport
3-Road Transport
start learning
3-drogowy transport
4-Road Transport
start learning
4-drogowy transport
1-Rail Transpor
start learning
Transpor 1-Rail
2-Rail Transpor
start learning
Transpor 2-Rail
3-Rail Transpor
start learning
Transpor 3-Rail
1-Waterborne Transport
start learning
Container ships and RoRo are most popular types of ships for intermodal transport.
2-Waterborne Transport
start learning
Container ships used for trans-ocean shipping and for short sea shipping, RoRo ships are mostly for short sea shipping.
3-Waterborne Transport
start learning
Ships for intermodal transport operate on schedules, operate at high speed, emission regulation for international shipping is decided by IMO.
4-Waterborne Transport
start learning
Heavy fuel oil (HFO) the dominating maritime fuel.
5-Waterborne Transport
start learning
lower speeds to save the cost of fuel.
6-Waterborne Transport
start learning
Inland waterway. These ships are usually operated at low speeds. In Europe, there are special regulations on the emissions to air and the quality.
7-Waterborne Transport
start learning
Several tools for calculate the environmental performance • The load factor and the utilisation of available space.
8-Waterborne Transport
start learning
When assessing the climate impact of vehicles and vessels, the size and type of ship is important for the results • For trains, the main factor is the energy form used.
1-What can be done to minimise the negative impact on the environment from intermodal transport systems?
start learning
1-Co można zrobić, aby zminimalizować negatywny wpływ intermodalnych systemów transportu na środowisko?
2-What can be done to minimise the negative impact on the environment from intermodal transport systems?
start learning
is to replace fossil fuels with biofuels.
3-What can be done to minimise the negative impact on the environment from intermodal transport systems?
start learning
reduce the vessel speed.
4-What can be done to minimise the negative impact on the environment from intermodal transport systems?
start learning
reduced through measures to reduce empty trips and increase the load factors.
5-What can be done to minimise the negative impact on the environment from intermodal transport systems?
start learning
use of electricity, use of natural gas and applying exhaust gas after treatment methods. -Trucks fulfilling the Euro VI standards.
