Short summary
Emissions from inland shipping were studied at the Rhine. Reliable NOx and PM emission indices are prerequisite for improving emission inventories. The NO2 / NOx emission ratio from the present study points to ship engines without exhaust gas aftertreatment as main emitter. The calculated NOx emissions of all motor ship types were found to be above the threshold values of national German guidelines. Accordingly, the implementation of efficient NOx reduction techniques is strongly recommended.
