Assessing the real-world energy performance and emissions of Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles (PHEVs) is complex: it depends on their usage (trip distance, recharging behavior), and results in different combined uses of their thermal and electric propulsion. In this study,...
Report no. 2/23: The report presents the results from a recent project Concawe conducted with TNO that used modelling to assess the influence of shipping emissions on the air quality in 19 selected European cities with or near major ports. Main findings of the study...
Standardized biodegradation testing methods, like the OECD 308 Aerobic and Anaerobic Transformation in Aquatic Sediment Systems, generate data on biodegradation required during environmental risk and hazard assessment of chemicals under different European and...
Report no. 1/23: This document addresses the periodic determination of diffuse emissions of non-methane volatile hydrocarbon compounds from refineries by means of remote sensing. A recent European standard, EN 17628:2022, addresses the proper conduct of such a survey...
A 2020 ICF review of the completeness of the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (E-PRTR) activities, pollutants and thresholds identified 38 new air and water pollutants for potential inclusion in the E-PRTR. Of these, 17 air pollutants and 11 water...
