An examination of the DRET model and the influence of payload, haul grade and truck type on earthmoving emissions

Abstract
Earthmoving equipment is a large generator of emissions. Accordingly, it is important to understand the underlying parameters affecting performance, in order to operate the equipment in the most emissions-efficient way. The paper aims to provide an original examination of the truck-oriented earthmoving parameters of haul grade, payload and truck type and their little known influence on fuel use and emissions. Observed field data ‒ on fuel use,...
