Description
This dataset describes the provision of transportation services for one twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) over a distance of one kilometer within inland waterway regions (regardless of watershed) using a container ship with a capacity of 300 TEUs. Port throughput refers to the total amount of freight that is shipped out from or into a port area via waterway and has undergone loading and unloading operations during a given period. The usual unit of measurement is the "twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU)", with one standard container measuring 20 feet in length × 8 feet in width × 8.6 feet in height (6.1 m × 2.44 m × 2.59 m, 38. 55 m3); when using this dataset, it can be converted according to actual cargo transportation conditions. This container ship can carry 300 TEUs, with a main engine power of 1,320 kW. Fuel consumption and major emissions (CO2, NOx, SOx, PM, NMVOC, CO, CH4, N2O) are calculated based on the vessel's load capacity, main engine power, and operating speed. When modeling and selecting container transport for cargo, you can use this dataset. The usage is as follows: if your cargo volume is 1 m3, you need to convert it into TEU units, using the conversion method 1 m3 = 0. 02594(1/38.55)TEU
Activity Description
This dataset represents 1 TEU·km transport service provided by a container ship (with a capacity of 300 TEU) operating in inland waterways of China (regardless of watersheds). The dataset covers the entire transportation life cycle, including container ship production and maintenance, 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 TEU·km using a 300-TEU container ship within inland waterways of China (regardless of watershed). It represents a transportation service of one standard container over a distance of 1 kilometer, considering only cargo transport. The vessel operates on diesel fuel.
