Abstract

Mobile source is categorized as an anthropogenic source. It is one of the main reasons of air pollutant. In a place where the air pollutant is so bad, it can affect the many things at the area such as people health, local socioeconomic and the people lifestyle at the area. The increases of number of vehicle in the country can increases the total air pollutant which will affect the air quality. Air quality management is important for controlling the air pollutant at an area. Without a good management, the environment in that area can be polluted. Emission inventory is a tool for air quality management. The objective of this project is to analyze the emissions inventory for on-road mobile sources within MBMB area. Vehicle counting is done for obtaining the required data. The data from vehicle counting is then processed by using Mobilev 3.0 software. The model of emission inventory in the 1st quarter of MBMB area for CO, HC, CO2, PM, SO2 and NO2 pollutant gas is developed. The result showed that CO2 gases are the most contributors in the on-road mobile source (162,308.82 ton/year) and car type of vehicle is being the most contributors for emission of the on-road mobile source. As conclusion, the usage of more environmental friendly technologies such as hybrid car or electrical car can reduce the emission released by the vehicle, thus will increase the quality of air at an area.
