Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to present atmospheric emissions (NOx, CO and HC) of commercial flights at Dalaman Airport for the years between 2016 and 2018.
Design/methodology/approach
Growing up, the potential for domestic and international airports will cause an increase in air transportation. Increasing demand for air transportation will cause adverse environmental impacts as well as positive economic contributions. Finding negative environmental effects and searching for solutions is an essential first step.
Findings
Emissions were calculated under three different groups (as daily, number of flights and per passenger). The maximum CO emission calculated was 1031.71 kg/day in August 2018, 41.55 g/pax. in October 2016 and 6909.27 g/flight in August 2018. The maximum HC emission calculated was 117.22 kg/day in August 2018, 4.78 g/pax. in May 2018 and 796.47 g/flight in May 2018. The maximum NOx emission calculated was 148.63 kg/day in August 2018, 6.04 g/pax. in October 2017 and 995.34 g/flight in August 2018.
Practical implications
The current study intends to show how can emission results differ under three different units.
Originality/value
The originality is the using of the real-time values for all calculations. The value of this study is to be key study for future applications of emission calculation methodologies.
