3 Content Introduction Current State of Vehicle Inspection in Nigeria Vehicular Emissions Testing Sources of Vehicular Emissions Facts About Vehicular Emissions Relevant Law(s) Equipment for Testing Vehicular Emissions Every Emission Test Result Tells a Story Reducing Emissions by Enforcing Periodic Vehicle Inspection Case Study - ACVTS
4 Introduction Vehicle inspection checks vehicles for roadworthiness aiming to improve road safety, public health, environmental conditions, thus improving the lifestyle of the individuals Periodic Technical Inspection is basically a procedure mandated by national or subnational governments, through which a vehicle is inspected to ensure that it conforms to regulations governing safety and emissions.
5 Why vehicle inspection is Important: Introduction Cont d Reduction of road incidents: Road worthy vehicles are not likely to malfunction in the course of operation. Ensure preventive maintenance is done on vehicles. Enhancement of clean environment: as a result of compliance with emission standards. Aids in applying the official rules and regulations pertaining to vehicles on the roads. Generation of Valuable data which aids planning and transport/security management. Generate new investments and jobs
6 Current State of Vehicle Inspection in Nigeria Challenges of the Current Procedure Inability to fully enforce existing laws: The enforcement agencies are unable to fully implement and enforce some existing laws and regulations due to lack of adequate equipment to carry out required tests. Examples are regulations that guide speedometer checks, brake checks, emission etc.
7 Current State of Vehicle Inspection in Nigeria Challenges of the Current Procedure Environmental Pollution: Inability to carry out vehicle emission tests has led to indiscriminate pollution of the environment with dangerous emissions from non-roadworthy vehicles.
8 Current State of Vehicle Inspection in Nigeria Challenges of the Current Procedure Many non-roadworthy vehicles are still found on roads: It is very obvious that if there is no effective vehicle inspection system to ensure high safety standard, the effect will be appearance of non-roadworthy vehicles on our highways.
9 Current State of Vehicle Inspection in Nigeria Challenges of the Current Procedure Poor maintenance culture: The effect of non-effective vehicle inspection systems have led to poor vehicle maintenance culture among the citizens.
10 Vehicular Emission Testing Vehicular emission testing basically is the use of gas analyzers to measure the component gases and particulate matter from engines and vehicles exhaust against the standards or regulations.
11 Source of Vehicular Emission Vehicles derive their energy from the combustion of fossil fuels. In the process vehicles emit into the environment, exhaust gases, which have created serious environmental and health concerns. These emissions contain carbon dioxide (CO2), oxides of sulphur (SOx), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), Ozone (O3) hydrocarbons and particulate matter.
12 Source of Vehicular Emission NOx CO2 Fossil Fuel & Air SOx CO HC (ppm)
13 Facts About Vehicular Emission Motor Vehicle emissions accounts for over 75% of greenhouse gases in developing countries like Nigeria. As cities grow, the need for transportation/mobility grows and vehicular emissions also increases. Nigeria is a dumping ground for used cars that have failed to meet emission standards as such vehicle inspection should be taken seriously. The Health and well being of citizens can be largely affected when there is heavy concentration of toxic gases in the atmosphere. From the analysis of the emission tests carried out on about 25,000 vehicles at ACVTS, over 85% vehicles presented did not meet the standards of the National Environmental (Control of Vehicular Emissions) Regulations 2011; Schedule III & Regulation 8(1) and 10. There must be a concerted effort in partnership with the law enforcement agencies in enforcement of the emission control law
14 Relevant Law(s) and Standards The National Environmental (Control of Vehicular Emissions from Petrol & Diesel Engines) Regulations, 2011
15 Relevant Law(s) and Standard SCHEDULE III [Regulation 8(1),10] Emission Standards For Petrol Engine In Use Carbon Monoxide [CO] (%) HydroCarbons (Parts per Million ppm) Existing Models New Models
16 Equipment for Testing Vehicular Emissions Gas Analysers & Opacimeter
17 Every Emission Test Tells a Story The Lambda Factor
18 Every Emission Test Result Tells a Story The CO Value
19 Every Emission Test Tells a Story The HC Value HC
20 Every Emission Test Tells a Story The HC Value
21 Reducing Emission by Enforcing Vehicle Inspection All vehicles and engines are presented for inspection based on the provision of the Road Traffic and National Vehicular emission control Regulation Emission tests are conducted and vehicles whose emissions level surpass the standards are rejected Implementation of vehicle inspection/emission control would ensure low emission vehicles ply our roads and by so doing reduce emission
22 Case Study ABUJA COMPUTERISED VEHICLE TESTING SERVICE (First Computerised Vehicle Inspection Centre in Nigeria)
23 Case Study - Introduction The Federal Republic of Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa. Nigeria s vehicle population is estimated to be worth over 15 million, and this number is constantly growing, leading to an increase of the number of accidents and traffic fatalities as well as environmental pollution. One of the solutions to cope with this situation is to improve the existing legal framework of roadworthiness enforcement and control of on-road vehicle emissions to meet international standards.
24 Our Focus Temple Resources Ltd/FCTA It is in this context that TEMPLE RESOURCES Limited undertook and engaged in the field of PTI, by introducing modern vehicle inspection system based on international standards, customized to meet the local requirements.
25 Our Focus Temple Resources Ltd/FCTA TEMPLE RESOURCES Ltd., in November 2012, was licensed by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) Abuja, within the context of a Public Private Partnership (PPP), to build and operate a network of 6 modern computerized vehicle PTI stations comprising 36 emission testing nodes to cover FCTA territory. So far over 30,000 emission tests have been conducted on different engines and vehicles but the emission programme is strictly advisory for now as the FCT Road Traffic Regulation does not spell out emission standards for different categories of vehicles
