Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of infrastructure carbon emissions, and in particular to a method and system for dynamic assessment of infrastructure carbon emissions over the entire life cycle based on multi-scale fusion. Background Art

[0002] As the global climate change problem becomes increasingly serious, attention to greenhouse gas emissions continues to increase. The construction and operation of infrastructure runs through the entire process of urbanization and industrialization. Its carbon emissions throughout its life cycle are an important part of greenhouse gas emissions, which has a profound impact on environmental protection and the realization of sustainable development goals. Therefore, the accurate assessment and effective control of infrastructure carbon emissions have become one of the important issues in the global response to climate change.

[0003] Although existing carbon emission assessment technologies and methods can provide carbon emission data to a certain extent, they still have significant shortcomings. First, current assessment methods are usually limited to a single scale, such as analysis of a specific project, a region or a time period, which makes it difficult to achieve a full-cycle, full-time assessment from design, construction to operation. Secondly, the traditional carbon emission assessment has limited accuracy and cannot fully reflect the carbon emission characteristics of infrastructure in different periods, different processes and different material selections, resulting in a reduced reference value of the assessment results in practical applications. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a multi-scale fusion method and system for dynamic assessment of infrastructure carbon emissions in order to accurately assess the carbon emissions of infrastructure over the entire cycle and time domain.

[0015] Furthermore, the multi-scale carbon emission prediction model is constructed based on a support vector machine or a decision tree or a deep neural network.

[0016] In another aspect of the present invention, a multi-scale fusion system for dynamic assessment of carbon emissions from infrastructure is also proposed, the system comprising a data acquisition module, a data processing module, a carbon emission assessment module and a decision support module;

[0071] Combined with historical carbon emission data, machine learning algorithms (such as support vector machines (SVM)) are used to dynamically predict highway carbon emissions, identify the main factors affecting carbon emissions, and predict carbon emissions in the next few years. By analyzing the prediction results, carbon emission reduction measures in highway reconstruction, reinforcement, energy efficiency optimization, etc. are provided;

[0072] Step 5: Optimization plan generation and decision support

[0080] Step 2: Data cleaning and integration

[0081] The system standardizes and normalizes the carbon emission data collected at each stage. All data from different sources will be converted into a unified carbon emission unit (such as tons of CO2) to ensure data consistency and quantify carbon emissions at each stage;

[0082] Step 3: Construction of multi-scale carbon emission assessment model

[0083] The system builds a multi-scale assessment model based on the LCA method and carbon emission factor library, combined with the carbon emission characteristics of the design, construction and operation stages:

[0085] Shipping stage: Evaluate carbon emissions based on ship fuel consumption data, voyage, speed, and carbon emission factors of different ship types;

[0086] Operational stage: Calculate the port's operational carbon emissions through factors such as power consumption and equipment usage;

[0087] Step 4: Dynamic prediction and optimization analysis

[0088] Combine historical data with real-time sensor information and use machine learning models (such as decision tree DT, random forest RF, etc.) for dynamic prediction. The system predicts future carbon emission trends by comparing different carbon emission patterns and historical data, and makes optimization suggestions, such as: improving ship fuel efficiency and reducing fuel consumption; using green energy (such as solar energy and wind energy) to replace traditional power supply; optimizing waterway management and reducing shipping carbon emissions;

[0089] Step 5: Optimization plan generation and decision support

[0090] Based on the evaluation results, the system generates carbon emission optimization plans for ports and shipping to help decision makers take feasible emission reduction measures, such as: using environmentally friendly ships to reduce carbon emissions; improving the energy efficiency of port facilities and reducing electricity consumption; optimizing waterway design and reducing the sailing distance of ships; the system provides the optimization plan to decision makers, and adjusts and updates the plan based on real-time data to ensure continuous optimization of carbon emissions during operations.

[0091] Existing technologies mainly conduct static analysis based on historical data and lack dynamic prediction capabilities. They are unable to provide forward-looking guidance for future carbon emission control, which limits the effective implementation of infrastructure carbon emission reduction measures.
