By way of tax incentives normal diesel fuel (sulphur 0.2 per cent) has been totally replaced by diesel with a low sulphur content (less than 0.05 per cent).

It sets the global cap on the sulphur content of any fuel oil on board ships and provides for the future monitoring of the worldwide average sulphur content of fuel.

Keeping prices of unleaded fuel low encourages lower consumption of leaded fuel.

About half of the Parties considered switching to cleaner fuels, such as low sulphur fuels and LPG, from coal.

Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6)

At even larger scales, impacts include regional acidification caused by sulphur and nitrogen emissions from fuel combustion or global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions.

Predominantly low for fuel combustion, with some Parties reporting them as medium .

More stringent control of sulphur emissions can be exercised in special sulphur oxide emission control areas.

Propylene Sulphur dioxide Trifluorochloroethylene, inhibited (Refrigerant gas R 1113)

Predominantly medium for fuel combustion, enteric fermentation, animal waste and waste, with some Parties reporting them as low .

These could include voluntary agreements with the car industry, complementary measures aimed at developing the market for fuel efficient, low CO2 emitting cars as well as alternative fuels and fuel economy labelling

(ii) Complementary measures aimed at developing the market for fuel efficient, low CO2 emitting cars as well as alternative fuels.

emissions to air TRI toxics, sulphur dioxides, nitrogen oxides, CO2 etc.

I've got a whole deskful of work. There's the sulphur deal.

For instance, while some Parties reported improved average fuel efficiency levels, they also noted large increases in the number of vehicle kilometres driven and low occupancy levels, which offset gains in fuel efficiency.

Solid fossil fuels are most frequently used for heating, which contain 2.5 4 per cent sulphur and which produce large quantities of sulphur dioxide and ash (20 30 per cent).

(xi) Limit and or reduce emissions of hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons and sulphur hexafluoride

Sixty four Parties (52 per cent) reported emission estimates of sulphur dioxide (SO2).

Limitation and reduction of emissions of hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons and sulphur hexafluoride. Annex B

The Baltic Sea is designated as a sulphur oxide emission control area in the Protocol.

A number of initiatives have been taken to reduce sulphur dioxide emissions and nitrogen oxygen emissions.

Most Parties reported emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), although not uniformly.

Sulphur dioxide concentration above the ceiling provokes respiratory problems in the population, particularly chronic patients and children.

Large quantities of sulphur dioxide are emitted in the air because lubricants are in use for heating.

Eighteen Parties (15 per cent) provided estimates of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and or sulphur hexafluoride (SF6).

To a large extent this was related to proliferation concerns but there was also the prospect of producing low enriched uranium for reactor fuel in a cheaper way.

It has a higher octane number than gasoline and contains no sulphur, and does not damage catalytic converters.

Vast amounts of energy are wasted in traditional cookstoves (with fuel efficiency as low as 10 18 per cent) still commonly used in rural areas of the developing world.
