2009 journal article

Comparison of Flexible Fuel Vehicle and Life-Cycle Fuel Consumption and Emissions of Selected Pollutants and Greenhouse Gases for Ethanol 85 Versus Gasoline

JOURNAL OF THE AIR & WASTE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION, 59(8), 912–924.

By: H. Zhai n, H. Frey n, N. Rouphail n, G. Goncalves & T. Farias

Contributors: H. Zhai n

MeSH headings : Air Pollutants / analysis; Bioelectric Energy Sources; Carbon Dioxide / analysis; Ethanol / chemistry; Gasoline / analysis; Models, Theoretical; Vehicle Emissions / analysis
TL;DR: Evaluated differences in fuel consumption and tailpipe emissions of flexible fuel vehicles (FFVs) operated on ethanol 85 (E85) versus gasoline imply that replacing gasoline with E85 reduces CO emissions, may moderately decrease NOx tail pipe emissions, and may increase HC tailpipe emission.

2009 journal article

Accumulation and fragmentation of plastic debris in global environments

PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY B-BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES, 364(1526), 1985–1998.

author keywords: persistent organic pollutants; marine debris; plastic production; landfill; microplastic
MeSH headings : Conservation of Natural Resources / statistics & numerical data; Environmental Pollutants / analysis; Oceans and Seas; Plastics; Waste Products / analysis
TL;DR: Global plastics production and the accumulation of plastic waste are documented, showing that trends in mega- and macro-plastic accumulation rates are no longer uniformly increasing and that the average size of plastic particles in the environment seems to be decreasing.

Contributors: H. Frey n

MeSH headings : Environmental Restoration and Remediation / methods; Gasoline / analysis; Models, Chemical; Motor Vehicles; Time Factors; Vehicle Emissions / analysis
TL;DR: Emissions for all pollutants generally decreased with an increase in the market share of alternative vehicle technologies, and modest improvements in fuel economy may be offset by VMT growth and reductions in overall average speed. (via Semantic Scholar)
