FUEL CONSUMPTION OF BELAZ DUMPERS AND CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS USING THE EXAMPLE OF OPEN PIT 'TURIJA' OF THE BROWN COAL MINE BANOVIĆI
This work sets out the methodology and presents the calculation results of the amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere of the BelAz dump truck at the Open Pit "Turija" BCM Banovići d.d., based on the fuel consumption monitoring data. Properly determined fuel consumption enables the calculation of the amount of carbon dioxide emitted and preventive measures, as well as the choice of its reduction strategy. Data collection took six months, then the data were analyzed, and thus the results were given for all dump trucks by months. Key words: fuel, open pit mining, BelAz dump truck, maintenance, Coal Mine Banovići, carbon dioxide
