TY - RPRT TI - Life Cycle Assessment of Greenhouse Gas and Criteria Air Pollutant Emissions from Conventional and Biobased Marine Fuels AU - Hawkins, T AB - The scope of this study includes the well-to-hull emissions of each fuel option. Supply chain emissions are included for petroleum extraction and refining, biofuel feedstock growth, harvesting, and conversion, as well as natural gas extraction and liquefaction. Use phase emissions are based on the best available emissions factors, however in several cases conventional diesel emissions are used as a proxy for emissions from biobased diesel. The infrastructure associated with fuel production and distribution as well as fuel-specific handling requirements are outside the scope of this study. The findings of this study are meant to gauge the potential emissions benefits associated with the use of biofuels for marine transportation and to identify tradeoffs amongst fuel options.
