Abstract

Carbon emissions are the main contributor to global warming, and it is well known that emissions must be significantly reduced to avoid the worst effects of climate change. The objective of this study is to investigate the carbon emissions from energy use in Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia campus. The main data collection approach for this study is the analysis of technical reports on energy consumption from 2015 to 2021 collected from the Development and Maintenance Center (PPP) and Sustainable Campus Office (SCO). The data collected was analyzed and compared over seven years of data presentation and analysis. The results show that the highest energy consumption has a significant impact on increasing carbon emissions on campus, with the highest emissions in 2015 at 1955.38 tCO2e and the lowest in 2021 at 965.70 tCO2e. On the other hand, based on the collected data, depending on the building, from 2018 to 2020, the highest carbon emission was demonstrated by the Faculty of Technical and Vocational Education (FPTV) with 2,875 tCO2e. As a result, lower energy consumption will lead to less carbon emissions that could create a better environment with less pollution and significantly lower costs.

马来西亚敦胡仙大学能源使用碳排放研究

碳排放是全球变暖的主要原因，众所周知，必须大幅减少碳排放，以避免气候变化的最坏影响。本研究的目的是调查马来西亚敦侯赛因大学校园能源使用的碳排放。本研究的主要数据收集方法是分析从发展与维护中心(PPP)和可持续校园办公室(SCO)收集的2015年至2021年能源消耗的技术报告。收集的数据经过七年的数据呈现和分析进行了分析和比较。结果表明:最高能耗对校园碳排放的增加有显著影响，2015年排放量最高为1955.38 tCO2e, 2021年最低为965.70 tCO2e。另一方面，根据收集到的数据，根据建筑的不同，从2018年到2020年，技术与职业教育学院(FPTV)的碳排放量最高，为2,875吨二氧化碳当量。因此，更低的能源消耗将导致更少的碳排放，从而创造一个污染更少、成本更低的更好的环境。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Integrated Engineering (IJIE) is a single blind peer reviewed journal which publishes 3 times a year since 2009. The journal is dedicated to various issues focusing on 3 different fields which are:- Civil and Environmental Engineering. Original contributions for civil and environmental engineering related practices will be publishing under this category and as the nucleus of the journal contents. The journal publishes a wide range of research and application papers which describe laboratory and numerical investigations or report on full scale projects. Electrical and Electronic Engineering. It stands as a international medium for the publication of original papers concerned with the electrical and electronic engineering. The journal aims to present to the international community important results of work in this field, whether in the form of research, development, application or design. Mechanical, Materials and Manufacturing Engineering. It is a platform for the publication and dissemination of original work which contributes to the understanding of the main disciplines underpinning the mechanical, materials and manufacturing engineering. Original contributions giving insight into engineering practices related to mechanical, materials and manufacturing engineering form the core of the journal contents.
