Vehicle Emission Controls and Energy — The Role of Aromatics and Lead Compounds

  • Chapter
Mobile Source Emissions Including Policyclic Organic Species

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 112))

Abstract

The last decade has seen considerable advances within the field of environmental control engineering where in particular, changes relating to vehicle emission controls have been significant. Modifications made to vehicles have been both innovative and beneficial and much can be learned from the experience of the last few years with regard to future policy in areas of the world where, to date, few changes have been made.
