The Studies on Carbon Emission Evaluation of Inland Vessel

Paying attention to the growing overall carbon emissions of the waterway transportation industry, a systematical and scientific carbon emission evaluation system for inland vessels was built. Applying AHP to determine and sort the weight of each index reduces the randomness in the evaluation and provides reference for developing evaluation standards. This also plays a guiding role in saving energy and reducing emission of inland vessels. Finally, some suggestions are put forward to reduce the carbon emissions of inland vessel, boost operation economic efficiency and enhance global competitiveness of shipping industry.
