Included activities starts

The dataset starts from the operation of dry bulk carriers.

Included activities ends

This dataset ends with the service of transporting 1 ton over 1 kilometer by dry bulk cargo ships within inland waterways (regardless of watershed). The dataset includes dry bulk cargo ship production and maintenance, construction of canals and ports, as well as energy use and operational emissions.

Description

This dataset represents the transportation of 1 ton of cargo over a distance of 1 kilometer by a dry cargo ship with a deadweight of 3000 tons operating in inland waterways (regardless of specific river basins). The transportation dataset covers the entire life cycle, including the production and maintenance of the dry cargo ship, the construction of canals and ports, and energy consumption and operational emissions. The ship has a deadweight tonnage (DWT) of 3000 tons and a main engine power of approximately 880 kW, both values based on Chinese inland waterway vessel standards. Fuel consumption is calculated based on the vessel's load capacity, main engine power, and operational speed. Major emissions (CO2, NOx, SOx, PM, NMVOC, CO, CH4, N2O, etc.) are calculated according to inland waterway vessel fuel consumption and relevant standards. For port and canal infrastructure, data is reasonably extrapolated based on global port and canal information.

Activity Description

This dataset represents 1 t·km transportation service provided by a dry bulk carrier (deadweight of 3,000 tonnes) operating in inland waterways of China (across all watersheds). The dataset covers the entire transportation life cycle, including the production and maintenance of the dry bulk carrier, construction of canals and ports, as well as energy use and operational emissions.

Process Description

This dataset can be used for freight transport services of 1 t·km using dry bulk carriers (deadweight 3,000 tons) in inland waterways of China (without distinction of river basins). This refers to providing transportation services for 1 ton over a distance of 1 kilometer, considering only cargo transport. The vessel uses diesel fuel.
