The document also compares some MOBILE6.2 results to results using a previous highway mobile source toxics emission factor model, MOBTOXSb. EPA has developed two previous toxic emission factor models for highway mobile sources. These models were developed primarily for internal assessment purposes and neither were officially released. However, both were released in draft form for use outside of EPA. The first model, MOBTOX, was developed as part of an assessment of toxic emissions, exposure, and risk, released in 1993 as the Motor Vehicle-Related Air Toxics Study.1 This model applied toxic fractions on a technology group basis to total organic gas (TOG) gram per mile emission factors to calculate air toxic emission factors. The TOG emission factors were derived from a version of MOBILE4.1 modified to account for control programs mandated by the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. Using MOBTOX, average nationwide in-use toxic emission factors could be estimated for benzene, 1,3-butadiene, formaldehyde, and acetaldehyde, for a number of evaluation years and possible control scenarios. Several years later, EPA developed a new toxic emission factor model, MOBTOXSb.2'3'4 The model was used in several EPA assessments, including the Regulatory Impact Analysis for the Tier 2/Gasoline Sulfur Final Rule,5 the Regulatory Impact Analysis for the 2007 Diesel- Sulfur Rule,6 the Technical Support Document for the Mobile Source Air Toxics Rule,7 and the 1996 National Toxics Inventory and National Scale Air Toxics Assessment.8'9 MOBTOXSb includes MOBILE6 model enhancements and represents a substantial improvement over the preliminary version used in the 1993 study. The model has the capability to account for differences in exhaust toxic fractions of TOG between normal and high emitting vehicles in calculating emission rates. Moreover, the model accounts for the impacts of aggressive driving and air conditioning usage on toxics. The impacts of fuel reformulation programs and changes in vehicle emission control technology can also be addressed with the model. The model accounts for the impacts of specific fuel parameters included in the Complex Model for reformulated gasoline and a draft fuel effects model for MTBE.10'n Finally, whereas separate runs had to be done for each toxic with the first version of MOBTOX, MOBTOXSb allows the user to model benzene, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, 1,3-butadiene, and MTBE in one run. Unfortunately, the input structure of MOBTOXSb is quite complicated and the model is difficult to use. This is because the model consists of several separate software tools that are not fully integrated into the MOBILE framework. Combining the air toxic and MOBILE models is a recommendation of the National Academy of Science Research Council's review of MOBILE.12 MOBILE6.2 fulfills this need, simplifies the modeling process, and provides a single, consistent interface for modeling vehicle pollutants. The MOBILE6 toxics module fully integrates the calculation of highway vehicle air ------- toxic emission factors for benzene, 1,3-butadiene, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, and MTBE into the modeling framework. It also integrates toxic emissions data and algorithms from EPA's Complex Model for Reformulated Gasoline. Moreover, the model can estimate emissions of other hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) based on user provided information. 2.0 Calculation of Toxic Emission Rates MOBILE6.2 explicitly estimates emissions for the following compounds: 1) Benzene - A known human carcinogen that causes leukemia and other blood disorders 2) 1,3-Butadiene - Causes excess incidence of leukemia in humans, and also a variety of reproductive and developmental effects in mice and rats 3) Formaldehyde - A likely human carcinogen that causes nasal tumors in rats, and is a respiratory irritant 4) Acetaldehyde - A likely human carcinogen that causes nasal tumors in rats, and is a respiratory irritant 5) Acrolein - A respiratory tract irritant 6) MTBE - Causes kidney lesions, swelling around the eyes and increased prostration in rats. It is also associated with tumors of kidneys and testes in male rats and liver tumors in female mice The above compounds, except for MTBE, dominate risk from mobile sources, based on results of the recent National-Scale Air Toxics Assessment.8 Benzene and MTBE are found in both exhaust and evaporative emissions; the others are constituents of exhaust only. Emission factors are reported according to whether they are exhaust, crankcase, diurnal, hot soak, running loss, resting loss or refueling loss emissions. MOBILE6.2 also distinguishes between exhaust start and running emissions for some light duty vehicle classes. Emissions are reported by vehicle class for the 28 vehicle types included in MOBILE6 (Table 2.1). MOBILE6.2 also has a command (ADDITIONAL HAPS) which allows the user to enter emission factors or air toxic to TOG ratios for additional air toxic pollutants. This command is described in more detail in Section 2.4. 2.1 Exhaust Emissions for Benzene, 1,3-Butadiene, Formaldehyde, Acetaldehyde, and MTBE The exhaust component of the toxics module multiplies the air toxic to TOG ratio by the MOBILE6.2 TOG (or volatile organic compound, VOC, for some technology groups) estimates to produce an air toxic emission estimate in MOBILE6.2.

GVWR) product is then multiplied by an off-cycle adjustment factor, explained in more detail below, which accounts for the difference in toxic fractions between Federal Test Procedure (FTP) and Unified Cycle (UC) operation. Mathematically, it is represented by: Ratio = g/mi Toxic from Air Toxic Module / g/mi TOG from Air Toxic Module Final Toxic Emission Factor = Ratio * TOG emissions from MOBILE6*ADJ TOX UC/FTP (1) (2) Toxic to TOG ratios vary by technology group, vehicle type, whether a vehicle is a normal or high emitter (same definition as MOBILE6), and fuel characteristics. Ratios for individual technology group/vehicle type/emitter class combinations are determined using a series of algorithms which calculate the ratios based on fuel parameter inputs. Since toxic emission rates are a product of toxic to TOG ratios and TOG emission rates, anything that reduces TOG will also result in toxic emission reductions. ------- Benzene, 1,3-butadiene, formaldehyde, and acetaldehyde exhaust emissions from light- duty gasoline vehicles with three-way or three-way plus oxidation catalysts were estimated using algorithms developed for the Complex Model for Reformulated Gasoline.10 For MTBE, a draft fuel effects model based on the Complex Model database was used.11 These algorithms were also used in MOBTOXSb. It should be noted that the sulfur effects terms in the algorithms were not used; instead, sulfur impacts on toxic emissions were assumed to be proportional to the sulfur impacts on total VOC estimated by MOBILE6. The Complex Model algorithms are based on data from vehicles representing a 1990 model year fleet. Toxic to TOG ratios for advanced technology vehicles running on a given fuel, such as California low emission (LEV) and Tier 2 vehicles, could be different than ratios based on the fleet in the Complex Model database. However, test data are far too limited to develop algorithms for advanced technology vehicles. Toxic emissions data from a small number of California Low Emission Vehicles13 suggest toxic to TOG ratios from vehicles are similar to those of vehicles in the Complex Model database, but additional testing and analysis are needed. For benzene, 1,3-butadiene, formaldehyde, and acetaldehyde, the algorithms are based on about 1800 observations; for MTBE they are based on a nearly 900 observations. These algorithms are applied by stratifying the light-duty gasoline fleet into ten Technology Groups and applying the algorithms individually to each group (this is known as the unconsolidated Complex Model). The ten groups are formed as a combination of fuel system, catalyst type, Air injection (y/n toggle), EGR, and Normal / High emitter status. These groups are listed in Table 2.2. The first nine groups represent only normal emitting vehicles (same definition as MOBILE6). The tenth group represents all of the high emitters, regardless of technology. Table 2.2.

These fractions can be obtained from the MOBILE6 TGS array.14 For light-duty gasoline vehicles with oxidation catalysts only or no catalysts, toxic to VOC ratios are determined using algorithms derived from a more limited data set from about 50 vehicles tested on a baseline fuel and a small number tested on reformulated fuels. Data were not available to develop algorithms for ETBE and TAME blends; thus, the algorithms for ethanol oxygenated gasoline were used for ETBE blends, and the algorithms for MTBE oxygenated gasoline were used for MTBE blends. Algorithms for light-duty diesel vehicles and heavy-duty engines are based on only a few tests. These algorithms for diesel vehicles and engines do not include any impacts of fuel parameters. Although diesel fuel parameters, such as cetane, do seem to have an impact on toxics emissions, data are inadequate to quantify them.15 No speciation data were available for highway motorcycles; thus, algorithms for non-catalyst light-duty vehicles were used, since most motorcycles in the fleet do not have catalytic converters. The algorithms for older technology light-duty gasoline, light-duty diesel, and heavy-duty vehicles were also used in MOBTOXSb and are provided in Table 2.3. The specific studies which comprise the data set for these algorithms are described in Appendix D of the 1999 document, "Analysis of the Impacts of Control Programs on Motor Vehicle Toxics Emissions and Exposure in Urban Areas and Nationwide."3 For light-duty gasoline vehicles, toxic to TOG ratios developed using the algorithms described above were also adjusted to account for the impacts of aggressive driving. These adjustments were applied to start and running emissions, as well as all speeds and roadway types. Adjustments to account for aggressive driving were based on analysis of data from vehicles running on both the Federal Test Procedure (FTP) Cycle, which does not account for aggressive driving, and the Unified Cycle (UC), which does. The adjustment is applied as shown previously in equation 2. These adjustments were developed for MOBTOXSb, and are given in Table 2.4. The adjustments are based on an analysis of UC and FTP emissions data from 12 vehicles collected by the California Air Resources Board. Details of the analysis of these data can be found in Appendix G of the 1999 document, "Analysis of the Impacts of Control Programs on Motor Vehicle Toxics Emissions and Exposure in Urban Areas and Nationwide."3 There are separate adjustments for normal and high emitters. ------- Table 2.3 Exhaust Toxic Fraction Equations for LDGV with Oxidation Catalysts, Non-Catalyst LDGV, HDGV, LDDV and HDDV Vehicle Class/ Catalvst Benzene LDGV and LDGT/oxcat LDGV and LDGT/noncat MC HDGV/noncat HDGV/cat LDDV Baseline Gasoline Bz/TOG= (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. % Arom.)- 1.1626)7100 Bz/TOG= (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. % Arom.)- 1.1626)7100 Bz/TOG= (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. % Arom.)- 1.1626)7100 Bz/TOG= (1.077 + 0.7732*(volume % benzene) + 0.0987 * (volume % aromatics - volume % benzene))/! 00 Bz/TOG = 0.0200 MTBE Gasoline Bz/TOG = (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. % Arom.)- 1.1626)/100 Bz/TOG = (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. % Arom.)- 1.1626)/100 Bz/TOG = (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. % Arom.)- 1.1626)/100 Bz/TOG = (1.077 + 0.7732*(volume % benzene) + 0.0987 * (volume % aromatics - volume % benzene))/! 00 EtOH Gasoline Bz/TOG = (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198 * (vol. % Arom.) - 1.1626)/100 Bz/TOG = (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. %Arom.)- 1.1626)/100 Bz/TOG = (0.8551* (vol. % Bz) + 0.12198* (vol. %Arom.)- 1.1626)/100 Bz/TOG = (1.077 + 0.7732*(volume % benzene) + 0.0987 * (volume % aromatics - volume % benzene))/! 00 6 ------- Vehicle Class/ Catalvst LDDT HDDV Formaldehyde LDGV and LDGT/oxcat HDGV/cat LDGV and LDGT/noncat MC HDGV/noncat LDDV LDDT HDDV Baseline Gasoline Bz/TOG = 0.0200 Bz/TOG=0.0105 Form/TOG = 0.0151 Form/TOG = 0.0224 Form/TOG = 0.0347 Form/TOG = 0.0386 Form/TOG = 0.0386 Form/TOG = 0.0782 MTBE Gasoline Form/TOG=0.0151 +((0.0151 * 1.2082)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Form/TOG = 0.0224 + ((0.0224 * 0.4336)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Form/TOG = 0.0347 + ((0.0347 * 0.1259)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) EtOH Gasoline Form/TOG =0.0151 + ((0.0151 * 0.3350)*(wt % EtOH/3.5)) Form/TOG = 0.0224 + ((0.0224 * 0.1034)*(wt % EtOH/3.5)) Form/TOG = 0.0347 + ((0.0347 * 0.1034)*(wt % EtOH/3.5)) ------- Vehicle Class/ Catalvst Acetaldehyde LDGV and LDGT/oxcat HDGV/cat LDGV and LDGT/noncat MC HDGV/noncat LDDV LDDT HDDV Baseline Gasoline Acet/TOG = 0.0047 Acet/TOG = 0.0060 Acet/TOG = 0.0067 Acet/TOG = 0.0123 Acet/TOG = 0.0123 Acet/TOG = 0.0288 MTBE Gasoline Acet/TOG = 0.0047 + ((0.0047 * 0.2556)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Acet/TOG = 0.0060 + ((0.0060 * 0.2303)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Acet/TOG = 0.0067 EtOH Gasoline Acet/TOG = 0.0047 + ((0.0047 * 2.1074)*(wt % EtOH/3.5)) Acet/TOG = 0.0060 + ((0.0060 * 1.1445)*(wt%EtOH/3.5)) Acet/TOG = 0.0067 + ((0.0067 * 1.1445)*(wt%EtOH/3.5)) ------- Vehicle Class/ Catalvst 1,3-Butadiene LDGV and LDGT/oxcat LDGV and LDGT/noncat MC HDGV/noncat HDGV/cat LDDV LDDT HDDV Baseline Gasoline Buta/TOG = 0.0044 Buta/TOG = 0.0092 Buta/TOG = 0.0074 Buta/TOG = 0.0029 Buta/TOG = 0.0090 Buta/TOG = 0.0090 Buta/TOG = 0.0061 MTBE Gasoline Buta/TOG = 0.0044 + ((0.0044 * - 0.2227)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Buta/TOG = 0.0092 + ((0.0092 * 0.1517)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Buta/TOG = 0.0074 + ((0.0074 * - 0.2172)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Buta/TOG = 0.0029 + ((0.0029 * - 0.3233)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) EtOH Gasoline Buta/TOG = 0.0044 + ((0.0044* - 0.2804)*(wt % EtOH/3.5)) Buta/TOG = 0.0092 + ((0.0092 * 0.1233)*(wt%EtOH/3.5)) Buta/TOG = 0.0074 + ((0.0074 * 0. 1233)*(wt % MTBE/2.7)) Buta/TOG = 0.0029 + ((0.0029 * - 0.1188)*(wt%EtOH/3.5)) 9 ------- Vehicle Class/ Catalyst MTBE LDGV and LDGT/oxcat LDGV and LDGT/noncat MC HDGV/noncat HDGV/cat Baseline Gasoline MTBE Gasoline MTBE/TOG = 0.0464*(wt % MTBE/2.7) MTBE/TOG = 0.0333 *(wt % MTBE/2.7) MTBE/TOG = 0.0209*(wt % MTBE/2.7) MTBE/TOG = 0.0155*(wt % MTBE/2.7) EtOH Gasoline 10 ------- Table 2.4.

Exhaust Emissions for Acrolein Acrolein emissions were not included in MOBTOXSb, but the pollutant is included explicitly in MOBILE6.2 because it was identified as a national non-cancer hazard driver in the the National-Scale Air Toxics Assessment (more than 10% of the U.S. population lives in census tracts where the typical exposure exceeded the reference concentration for this compound),8 and because highway mobile sources are a large contributor to the overall inventory in 1996.7 Acrolein fractions of TOG used in the model are the same as those used in the 1996 National Toxics Inventory. The documentation for that inventory describes the data sources used to develop them.9 The fractions used are provided in Table 2.5. They are obtained from vehicles running on a baseline gasoline or diesel fuel and the model does not account for potential impacts of fuel reformulation. Table 2.5.

Since the above two models do not calculate resting loss emissions, it was assumed that benzene and MTBE fractions for resting loss were equal to those of diurnal emissions. The algorithms for benzene are based on a proprietary vapor equilibrium model developed by General Motors. For MTBE, diurnal and hot soak emission algorithms are based on regression analysis of data from over 100 tests; and the running loss algorithm is based on data from 6 tests. The refueling emissions algorithm is based on an analysis done at the Colorado School of Mines, which relates MTBE refueling emissions to benzene refueling emissions.16 MOBILE6.2 does not estimate crankcase emissions of HAPs due to a lack of HAP emissions data on this emissions type.

User-Defined Air Toxic Pollutants MOBILE6.2 has a command (ADDITIONAL HAPS) which allows the user to enter emission factors or air toxic ratios for additional air toxic pollutants. Table 2.7 lists compounds identified as mobile source air toxics in the 2000 Mobile Source Air Toxics Rule that are not explicitly modeled by MOBILE6.2 (benzene, ,13-butadiene, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, MTBE and acrolein are modeled) or MOBILE6.1 (diesel particulate matter). 12 ------- Table 2.7. List of Mobile Source Air Toxics (MSATs) Not Explicitly Modeled by MOBILE6.1 or MOBILE6.2. Arsenic Compounds Chromium Compounds Dioxin/Furans Ethylbenzenea n-Hexanea Lead Compounds Manganese Compounds Mercury Compounds Naphthalenea Nickel Compounds POMb Styrene Toluenea Xylene3 Tound in evaporative as well as exhaust emissions. bPolycyclic Organic Matter includes organic compounds with more than one benzene ring, and which have a boiling point greater than or equal to 100 degrees centigrade. A group of seven polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, which have been identified by EPA as probable human carcinogens, (benz(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, benzo(a)pyrene, chrysene, dibenz(a,h)anthracene, and indeno(l,2,3-cd)pyrene) are sometimes used as surrogates for the larger group of POM compounds. A number of these compounds have an evaporative as well as an exhaust emissions component. As described in the MOBILE6.2 User's Guide, emission factors must be input in milligrams per mile and ratios can be input as fractions of VOC, fractions of TOG, or fractions of PM. All user-defined inputs for evaporative emissions must be input as ratios. These ratios must be expressed as milligrams of HAP per gram of VOC, TOG, or PM. ADDITIONAL HAPS input files were developed for the compounds listed in Table 2.7, except for dioxins/furans and lead compounds, and used to develop the draft 1999 National Emissions Inventory (NEI), version 3 (ftp://ftp.epa.gov/EmisInventory/draftnei99ver3/). 17 Sixteen individual POM compounds were included in the files. Because toxic to TOG ratios for several gaseous HAPs vary between baseline gasoline and gasoline oxygenated with MTBE or ethanol, separate input files were developed for: 1) baseline gasoline; 2) gasoline oxygenated with 2% MTBE by weight (e.g., Federal reformulated gasoline); 3) gasoline oxygenated with 2.7% MTBE by weight (e.g., winter oxygenated gasoline); and 4) gasoline oxygenated with 3.5% ethanol by weight (gasohol). These input files are provided as examples for users in the updated MOBILE6.2 release. 3.0 Input Parameter Data MOBILE6.2 requires the following additional fuel parameter inputs which are not required for estimation of criteria pollutant emissions: 13 ------- GAS AROMATIC% - Aromatic content of gasoline on a percentage of total volume basis GAS OLEFIN% - Olefin content of gasoline on a percentage of total volume basis GAS BENZENE% - Benzene content of gasoline on a percentage of total volume basis E200 - Percentage of vapor a given gasoline produces at 200 degrees F E300 - Percentage of vapor a given gasoline produces at 300 degrees F OXYGENATE - Oxygenate type and content of gasoline on a percentage of total volume basis. There are four valid oxygenate types in the model: MTBE - methyl tertiary butyl ether ETBE - ethyl tertiary butyl ether ETOH - ethanol TAME - tertiary amine methyl ether These are all parameters included in the Complex Model. MOBILE6.2 cannot model air toxics in a situation where a single fuel contains more than one oxygenate. However, the user can model multiple fuels for an area which differ in the oxygenate used, using a "market share" parameter. This is described in more detail in the User's Guide. Also, if the user selects ETBE or TAME, MOBILE6 assumes that it is an equal weight percent of MTBE for the purposes of HC, CO, and NOx calculations. 3.1 Sources of Fuel Parameter Data for Modeling Base Years There are a number of sources of data on fuel properties from surveys of gasoline at service stations. Information on these data sources is provided below. 3.1.1. The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers North American Gasoline and Diesel Fuel Survey The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers samples commercially available gasoline and diesel fuel throughout the United States, Mexico, and Canada during the summer and winter seasons.18 In the U.S., three grades of gasoline are sampled - premium unleaded, mid-grade unleaded, and regular unleaded. Table 3.1 lists the U. S. cities included in the Alliance gasoline surveys. These surveys are available for purchase on the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers' website: http://store.autoalliance.org/StoreFront.asp 14 ------- Table 3.1.

TRW Petroleum Technologies Survey TRW Petroleum Technologies (formerly the National Institute for Petroleum and Energy Research) also samples gasoline from service stations throughout the country during summer and winter. The TRW Petroleum Technologies surveys include non-reformulated gasoline, gasoline- alcohol blends, and reformulated gasolines. Data are reported for 3 grades, for 15 marketing districts, selected by elevation and location. Table 3.2 lists the marketing districts included in the surveys. Information on obtaining surveys can be obtained from the following address: TRW Petroleum Technologies Attn: Cheryl L. Dickson P. O. Box 2543 Batlesville, OK 74005 Telephone: (918)338-4419 3.1.3. Reformulated Gasoline Surveys The U.S. EPA samples gasoline at the pump in reformulated gasoline areas, at least four times a year, twice during the summer VOC season (6/1-9/15) and twice outside the VOC season.19 These surveys collect and analyze samples from retail gasoline stations. Mandatory reformulated gasoline areas outside California are surveyed at least eleven times a year. Some of the smallest opt-in areas are not surveyed every year. Surveys measure Complex Model parameters plus T50 and T90, except that surveys in the federal RFG areas in California are for 15 ------- Table 3.2.

These data are available at the following website: http://www.epa.gov/otaq/regs/fuels/rfg/properf/perfmeth.htm 3.2 Weighting Fuel Parameter Data from Surveys For most modeling, it will be necessary to develop composite fuel parameters based on the mix of regular, mid-grade, and premium gasoline. Such data can be found at the State level 16 ------- in the Petroleum Marketing Annual reports, published by the Energy Information Administration, Office of Oil and Gas, Department of Energy.20 These documents can be found at the following website: http://www.eia.doe.gov/oil_gas/petroleum/data_publications/petroleum_marketing_annual/pma_ historical.html Also, many areas of the Midwest sell both baseline gasoline and gasohol. Information on baseline and gasohol sales volumes at the State level is compiled by the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, Office of Highway Policy Information.21 The website where this information can be obtained is: http://www.fhwa. dot, gov/ohim/qffuel .htm 3.3. Projecting Fuel Parameters to Future Years In order to do toxic emission factor modeling for future years, model users will need to make a determination of appropriate fuel parameters to use in the modeling. There are three potential approaches which may be used to do this: 1) Use existing refinery modeling work and apply results to areas being modeled. 2) Employ a consultant to evaluate what fuel changes are likely, based on professional judgement and experience, or to do new refinery modeling work. 3) If one is modeling an area where a new program has been implemented, look at other areas of the country where the program has been implemented, and make inferences. Several refinery modeling studies were done in conjunction with the Tier II Gasoline Sulfur Final Rulemaking, to evaluate costs of meeting low sulfur standards. These studies were done by the American Petroleum Institute, the National Petrochemical and Refiners Association, the Association of International Automobile Manufacturers, and the Department of Energy. Results of these studies are summarized Chapter 5 of the Regulatory Impact Analysis for the rule.5 3.4. Fuel Parameter Data from Recent EPA Toxic Emissions Modeling In its 1999 assessment of motor vehicle toxic emissions and exposure,3 EPA compiled fuel summer and winter parameters for 10 urban areas and 15 regions, which were used to develop emission factors for construction of a nationwide highway mobile source toxics inventory. Data were compiled for 1990 and 1996 base years, summer and winter. Projections to 2007 and 2020 were done based on refinery modeling. Methods use to do projections are 17 ------- described in Appendix J of the 1999 assessment. The parameters used in this modeling are provided in the Appendix of this guidance document. In addition, EPA recently developed county-level fuel parameters for 1990, 1996, and 1999, to use in developing revised inventory estimates for the NEI. These fuel parameters can be found at the EPA ftp site with draft 1999 NEI, version 3 data: ftp://ftp.epa.gov/EmisInventory/draftnei99ver3/ 4.0 Results of the MOBILE6.2 Model 4.1 Comparison of Calendar Year Fleet Average Emission Factors to MOBTOXSb Emission Factors from 1999 Study This section presents some limited results of emission factor modeling using MOBILE6.2, comparing estimates to those from MOBTOXSb, the predecessor to this model. The MOBTOXSb emission factors were obtained from analyses done for the 1999 document, "Analysis of the Impacts of Control Programs on Motor Vehicle Toxics Emissions and Exposure in Urban Areas and Nationwide."3 These emission factors do not include impacts of 2007 heavy duty standards. The MOBILE6.2 toxic emission factors were developed using the same input data, again not including impacts of 2007 heavy duty standards. The limited results presented here are based on modeling for the city of Atlanta. Atlanta does not have a reformulated gasoline program but does have an inspection and maintenance program. Although absolute emission levels vary significantly from city to city, depending on type of fuel program, type of inspection and maintenance program, average temperature and other local parameters, the trends in toxic emissions are consistent. Thus modeling results for Atlanta are a good illustration of the directional differences which can be anticipated in changing between the models, provided input parameters are similar. Figures 4.1 through 4.4 present fleet average toxic emission factors from MOBTOXSb and MOBILE6.2, for benzene, 1,3-butadiene, formaldehyde, and acetaldehyde. For all compounds, MOBILE6.2 estimates higher emission factors in base years, with a convergence in emission factors by 2020. This trend is primarily a result of changes in the TOG emission rates used in MOBILE6.2, versus those used in MOBTOXSb. The TOG emission rates in MOBTOXSb were derived incorporating elements of the MOBILE6 methodology, but significant revisions to the emission rates were made subsequent to the development of MOBTOXSb and prior to release of MOBILE6. The difference in underlying TOG emission rates between the two models are given in Figure 4.5. 18 ------- Figure 4.1.

This is because during base years, MOBILE6.2 classifies more vehicles as hydrocarbon high emitters, and the toxic to TOG fraction for 1,3-butadiene is roughly three times higher than the normal emitter fraction. It should also be noted that MOBILE6.2 projects slightly lower emission factors for formaldehyde and acetaldehyde by 2020. This is because diesel vehicles emit proportionally larger quantities of carbonyl compounds relative to TOG, and MOBILE6 projects lower TOG emissions for heavy duty diesel engines, particularly in future years when benefits of 2007 heavy duty standards are realized. 4.2 Comparison of MOBILE6.2 and MOBTOXSb Results by Vehicle Class and Model Year As part of an evaluation of MOBILE6.2 modeling results, Eastern Research Group, Inc. developed an Excel Workbook which can generate charts which can make MOBILE6.2 versus MOBTOXSb comparisons for the following cases: 4) Atlanta, Chicago, and Los Angeles 5) 1990, 2007, and 2020 6) Winter and Summer The workbook allows comparison of exhaust and evaporative toxic and TOG emission factors, as well as toxic to TOG ratios, for individual vehicles classes. Results are presented by model year 21 ------- for a given calendar year. Since MOBILE6.2 and MOBTOXSb use different classes of vehicles, the comparisons in Table 4.1 were used. Table 4.1. Classes of Vehicle Types Compared Between MOBILE6.2 and MOBTOXSb MOBILES/ MOBTOX Vehicle Type LDGV LDGT2 HDGV LDDV HDDV MOBTOX Vehicle Type ID Number 1 3 4 5 7 MOBILE6 Vehicle Type LDGV LDGT3 HDGV2b LDDV HDDV8B MOBILE6 Vehicle Type ID Number 1 4 6 14 23 Figures 4.6 and 4.7 depict mg/mi emission factors and toxic to TOG ratios, respectively, for light-duty gasoline vehicle exhaust benzene in Atlanta, summer, 2007, by model year. MOBILE6.2 emission factors for early 1980's model years are about three times greater than MOBTOXSb, while there is convergence for later model years. Benzene to TOG ratios are also somewhat higher for earlier model years, but the difference is not as great as the difference in emission factors. Thus, it can be concluded that differences in TOG emission rates for earlier model years account for most of the difference in benzene emission rates (Figure 4.8). Figure 4.6.

For heavy duty diesel vehicles, however, benzene exhaust emission rates estimated using MOBILE6.2 are lower than MOBTOXSb (Figure 4.10). This is a result of lower TOG emission rates in MOBILE6.2 for that vehicle class.
