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 provision of one ton-kilometer of freight transport service by a dry cargo vessel (deadweight of 2,000 tonnes) operating in inland waterways (regardless of specific river basins). The transport dataset covers the entire life cycle, including the production and maintenance of the dry cargo vessel, the construction of canals and ports, as well as energy consumption and operational emissions. The vessel has a deadweight tonnage (DWT) of 2,000 tonnes and a main engine power output of approximately 700 kW, both of which are 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 are reasonably extrapolated based on global port and canal information.

Activity Description

This dataset represents the transport service of 1 t·km for a dry cargo ship (with a deadweight of 2,000 tons) operating in inland waterways of China (regardless of watershed). The dataset covers the entire transport life cycle, including the production and maintenance of the dry cargo ship, the construction of canals and ports, as well as energy use and operational emissions.

Process Description

This dataset can be used for 1 t·km freight services by dry cargo ships (deadweight 2000 t) in inland river regions of China (regardless of watershed). It refers to providing transportation service for one ton of cargo over one kilometer, considering only freight transportation. The vessel uses diesel fuel.
