The study compares the environmental impact of a power plant in the Brazilian Amazon when using heavy fuel oil (HFO) engines and natural gas engines. It analyzes emissions of pollutants such as CO, CO₂, NOx, SOx, and particulate matter, noting that gas engines emit less NOx and SOx but more CO and CO₂ per unit of power supplied.
