An Aircraft Carbon Emission Calculation Model Using Point Merge Procedure

Chenyuan Zuo, Xueyan Li, Qinshuai Zhao, Zhiyuan Shen

Abstract—Based on the current development trend of China's civil aviation industry, the rapid growth of flight volume causes excessive pollutant emissions. Aiming at decreasing the carbon emissions of aircraft operation, in this paper, a flight procedure namely point merge procedure is firstly introduced. Meanwhile, we improves the carbon emission calculation model under the point merge procedure. Finally, a case study of Shanghai Pudong Airport shows that the operational capacity has increased 5% in peak-hour under point merge procedure, while the total carbon emissions has reduced 309.3064g.

Index Terms—carbon emission, aircraft, point merge, operational capacity
