Problem analysis of improving the environmental performance of public transport

Abstract

The transport system of any locality raises a number of environmental problems: atmospheric, hydrological, lithosphere and noise pollution. Due to the fact that the exhaust gas of gasoline engines contains a large amount of harmful substances, many manufacturers of passenger transport do not consider gasoline as the fuel of the future and alternative fuels are increasingly being used in world practice. This paper analyzes the problem of improving the environmental performance of public transport, provides solutions to the problem of air pollution in various developed countries, formulates the most important criteria for the design of environmentally friendly buses and presents a hybrid bus model using an exhaust turbine running on ethanol, based on an analysis of the design city buses of various manufacturing companies.
