Research on Reducing Harmful Emissions in Case of Automobile Terminal Transportation

Despite the high share of road freight transport in the total volume of cargo transportation, it continues to be one of the main sources of pollutants into the atmosphere. To solve this problem, modern eco-friendly logistics technologies are being actively introduced in foreign countries and domestically. Automotive terminal systems make it possible to reduce the number of shipments in a certain direction by enlarging shipments and thereby reduce environmental pollution. The research methods are the calculated determination of the most significant harmful emissions, depending on the terminal distance and loading of the truck. The novelty of the work is the following: the nature of reducing emissions of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and solid particles when using automobile terminal transportation are found out. The study results show that the logistics technology under consideration makes it possible to reduce CO2, SO2, NOx and PM emissions, and with an increase in vehicle load capacity, this reduction becomes greater. Conclusions: the terminal system of automobile transportation allows to increase the level of logistic customer service, reduce harmful emissions and improve the position of motor transport in the transportation services market.
