2008 Emissions Inventory for the Municipality of Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico January 23, 2014 Presented by Marty Wolf, ERG Meeting of the Joint Advisory Committee for the Improvement of Air Quality – Paso Del Norte
Inventory Objective & Scope • Objective – Develop 2008 base year emissions inventory for ozone modeling • Scope • Pollutants – NOx, SO2, VOC, CO, PM10, and PM2.5 • Source types – point, area, on-road motor vehicle, nonroad mobile, biogenic • Inventory domain – municipality of Juárez • Annual resolution – annual (tpy) • Spatial resolution – municipality-level
Source Types • Point sources – federal and state jurisdiction sources • Area sources – fuel combustion, evaporative, fires, miscellaneous • On-road motor vehicles • Nonroad mobile sources – aircraft, locomotives, and construction and agricultural equipment • Biogenic sources – vegetation VOC and soil NOx
Inventory Objective - Contractors • Objective – Work with Mexico-based contractors • ERG – lead technical contractor • UT – project prime contractor • Juárez-based subcontractors (TransEngineering, ITCJ, Arturo Woocay Consulting, Mares Vazquez Consulting) • Accurate “on the ground” data collection and verification • Develops skills and capacity for future emission inventories
Inventory Development • Phase I – completed August 2011 • Area sources • On-road motor vehicles • Nonroad mobile sources • Biogenic sources • Phase II – completed June 2013 • Point sources
Point Sources • Based upon 2008 Mexico NEI • Focus on QA of reported emissions • Emissions provided for 182 sources – 89 federal, 87 state, 6 duplicate • Emissions primarily from federal jurisdiction sources, except for VOC • Largest sectors – electricity and cement/lime • Secondary sectors – petroleum, petrochemical, automotive, chemical
Point Source – Spatial QA • Emphasis on ozone modeling – spatial location is important • Identified 45 facilities for field spatial check • 26 facilities with coordinates outside municipality • 8 facilities with coordinates in residential areas • 11 facilities with significant emissions (i.e., “high emitters”) • Field survey check conducted by Arturo Woocay Consulting and Mares Vazquez Consulting
Point Source – Emissions QA • Fuel consumption – should have combustion pollutants • Solvent usage – should have VOC • Total PM ≥ PM10 ≥ PM2.5 • Industry type should match reported emissions • Gasoline terminals – VOC • Cement and concrete plants – PM10 and PM2.5 • Facilities with similar fuel consumption should have similar emissions
Area Sources • Local Data • Industry – natural gas and LPG suppliers, PEMEX • Government – General Directorate of Public Works, Fire Department, SAGARPA, U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics, Junta Municipal de Agua y Saneamiento (JMAS) • Studies • San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora consumer products survey study • Brick kiln study
On-Road Motor Vehicles • General Methodology • Based on methodology initially developed for 1999 Mexico NEI • Road link/segment VKT developed using traffic and congestion modeling • MOBILE6-Mexico emission factors developed for each link/segment (by season, speed, ambient temperature)
On-Road Motor Vehicles • Traffic and Congestion Modeling • Urban area of Juárez • Federal Highway 2 (towards state of Sonora) • Federal Highway 45 (towards city of Chihuahua) • Road network, trip generation rates, and demographic and socio-economic information
Nonroad Mobile Sources • Aircraft LTOs by airframe make and model – González International Airport • Locomotive fuel use – Ferromex • Agricultural and construction equipment – NONROAD-Mexico model
Biogenic Sources • Biogenic sources – vegetation VOC and soil NOx • Estimated using GloBEIS model (Version 3.1) and Mexico-specific land use data set • Land use data from INEGI and IMIP • Meteorological data from NCDC
Summary of Results (tpy) NA = not applicable; NE = not estimated
Areas of Potential Improvement • Review of point source COAs • Addition of PM10/PM2.5 sources – on-road motor vehicles, paved/unpaved roads, windblown dust, construction dust • Migration from MOBILE6 to MOVES • More frequent inventory updates
