“…Part of this reduction is already possible for the existing fleet as most of paraffinic compounds are drop-in for market diesel fuel. This means that, under constraints of availability [38], the e-diesel, waste-based fuels, and biomass-to-liquids fuels should be rolled out in the vehicle legacy fleet and in the new fleet powered by internal combustion engines along with efficiency measures and electrification [39].…”

Research efforts into advanced emission control systems led to significant reduction of pollutant emissions of modern internal combustion engines. Sustainable renewable fuels are used to further reduce their Well-to-Wheels greenhouse gas emissions. The novel aspect of this paper is the compatibility investigation of existing advanced emission control technologies for achieving low pollutant emissions with the use of sustainable renewable fuels with vehicle tests. This is done on a diesel demonstrator vehicle, equipped with Lean NOx trap and dual-SCR technologies in combination with a 48V mild-hybrid powertrain. Tailpipe pollutant and CO2 emissions are measured for market diesel fuel with 7% renewable fatty-acid-methyl-ester (FAME) (B7), diesel fuel with 30% FAME (B30), and 100% renewable hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO). Results show no significant difference in pollutant emissions between the different fuels used. In a second part of the study, a Well-to-Wheels (WTW) analysis is conducted. This includes different pathways for the biomass-to-liquid fuels that were tested on the vehicle, as well as a power-to-diesel (e-diesel) assessment. Results show that significant WTW CO2 reductions are possibly compared to the state-of-the-art market diesel fuel. Part of this reduction is already possible for the existing fleet as most of paraffinic compounds are drop-in for market diesel fuel.

“…Nowadays, it is impossible to imagine modern civilization without such a commonplace thing as an automobile means of transportation (both group and personal, including At the same time, profile organizations like MarkLines [1], ACEA [2,3], Trading Economics [4], OICA [5], Statista [6], U.S. Department of Transportation [7], SMMT [8] (etc. ), in the twenty-year horizon, statistical analysis indicates a 42, 9% growth in global production of automotive equipment (2001 -56, 0 million units / 2021 -80 million units) / 2021 -80 million units), however, the global automotive industry is currently in recession after a production peak in 2017-2018 (up to 97 million units annually), indicating the transformation of the studied industry caused by the integration of modern factors into the automotive production process: tightening requirements for the cost/quality balance (S. E. Gayiya [9]), tightening of environmental requirements and standards (M. Hirz [10]), tightening of requirements to increase the qualification background of the involved specialists and exclusion of "human" defect factors of car production (J. Reimer [11]), reprofiling of production focus on production with modern technological equipment (E. Shafiei [12]), toughening of safety qualities of produced automotive products, which requires integration into the production process of additional testing activities and inspections (S. König [13]), as well as other aspects caused by the global changes in the general concept of world manufactoring (H. A. Khan [14]) as an adequate response to the technological progress caused by the fourth wave of industrialization (L. Athanasopoulou [15], T. Papadopoulos [16], T. C. Ng [17] (et al)).…”

Aims: The study aims to identify ways and potential solutions to automate the assembly and production process for passenger car gearboxes. Object of Research: Assembly and production process for car gearboxes. Subject of Research: Modern and evolutionary automation tools that have the potential to be implemented in the assembly processes of automotive transmission controls. Methodology: To achieve this goal, as part of this study, it is planned to apply methods of bibliometric analysis of leading scientometric databases to obtain correlation relationships and analytical conclusions regarding the vector of development of automation means of passenger car gearbox assembly process. Results: As a result of the research by means of scientometric analysis and correlation the vector of probabilistic technical solutions of integration and development of automation means of the sequence of production operations during the assembly of the transmission, as well as adaptive framework-design solutions for the implementation of tools of the fourth iteration of industrial-industrial progress in the production processes of assembly of the studied technical control means and logical-technological connection of the elements of the transmission system, which affect the overall process of automotive manufacturization. Conclusion: The passenger car gearbox is a multi-component, complex system whose assembly is a complex multi-operational process, and given the high responsibility of this machine element, there is an urgent need to introduce modern automation tools into the assembly and production processes, which will significantly optimize global automatofactoring. The practical results of the present study consist in the formation of a focus scientometric database of profile data, identification of a potential vector of development of means and systems of automation of assembly-production operations, identification and formation of solutions for the implementation of modern means of automated production in the actual global automotive manufacturing, which allows to get the optimum ratio of production costs/quality of products by improving the manufacturability, productivity and flexibility of processes of assembly of multi-element and multi-component automotive systems and structures.

“…However, due to the low fluctuation in the following years (2009-2018), the double smoothing approach was chosen. Moreover, it is common practice for researchers to assume in their basic approaches, linear forecasting behaviours in vehicle fleet development [78][79][80][81].…”

This study provides a thorough review and analysis of the evolution of the Greek vehicle fleet over the last ~30 years, which is next used for the generation of high granularity fleet projections, the assessment of associated air pollution and the estimation of relevant environmental benefits by 2030. The integrated methodology developed takes also into account vehicle clustering and the Brown’s Double Simple Exponential Smoothing technique that, together with the adoption of COPERT-based emission factors, allow for the estimation of the anticipated emissions in 2030. Expected 2030 emissions levels suggest a reduction across all pollutants compared to 2018, ranging from 3.7% for PM10 to 54.5% for NMVOC (and 46% for CO, 14% for SO2, 28% for NOX and 21% for CO2). We find that Greece is on track with national goals concerning the reduction of air pollution from the transportation sector, which designates the positive contribution anticipated by EVs and new, “greener” vehicles, and sets new challenges for the further improvement of the sector beyond the 2030 outlook.
