    Cálculo de las emisiones de efecto invernadero en el terminal terrestre de Salcedo como base para futuros proyectos de Mecanismo de Desarrollo Limpio (MDL)

    The greenhouse gas emissions produced by the Bus station of Salcedo were calculated to determine the carbon footprint, based on ISO 14064 and GHG Protocol, the first baseline of transport activity was established, and an Action Plan was designed. to improve the public Transport of the Parish. The transport baseline consisting of 103 buses was classified by EURO technology, 64 measurements were taken (EURO I6, EURO II 35, EURO III 23) with the ECA-450 using the idling method to obtain: percentage O2, temperature of chimney and environment, CO, NO NO2 and SO2 in mg/m3. The emission factor for CO2 (8.98E + 04 kg/TJ) and N2O (3.46E-02) were determined, which differed from that reported by the IPCC. With respect to GHG emissions (t/year), the EURO II had the highest values with respect to CO2 (36 percent) and N2O (41 percent), while for CH4 the highest value was given by the EURO III (42 percent). The total carbon footprint was 8.86E + 03t CO2-eq, of which range III (8.83E + 03t CO2-eq) generated the largest amount of emissions due to the quality of the fuel and the application of the EURO technology in Ecuador. According to the statistical analysis, it can be mentioned that the EURO technology does not influence oxygen and nitrogen dioxide, but rather carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen oxides.
