As global climate change issues continue to escalate, managing carbon footprints in industrial production processes has become a key indicator for assessing their environmental impact. This study focuses on the comparative analysis of carbon emissions from two welding technologies used in the production of subway aluminum car bodies-Friction Stir Welding (FSW) and Metal Inert-Gas welding(MIG). Based on activity level data and greenhouse gas emission factors, the results show that the \(CO_{2}e\) emissions from Friction Stir Welding are significantly lower than those from MIG Welding. This research provides empirical data for the rail vehicle production industry, offering valuable data support and decision-making reference for rail vehicle manufacturers seeking to reduce environmental impacts through improvements in production processes.

摘要

As global climate change issues continue to escalate, managing carbon footprints in industrial production processes has become a key indicator for assessing their environmental impact. This study focuses on the comparative analysis of carbon emissions from two welding technologies used in the production of subway aluminum car bodies-Friction Stir Welding (FSW) and Metal Inert-Gas welding(MIG). Based on activity level data and greenhouse gas emission factors, the results show that the \(CO_{2}e\) emissions from Friction Stir Welding are significantly lower than those from MIG Welding. This research provides empirical data for the rail vehicle production industry, offering valuable data support and decision-making reference for rail vehicle manufacturers seeking to reduce environmental impacts through improvements in production processes.
